Skidding Oracles Lose 7th Straight
The Orlando Oracles got a superb performance from pitcher Toni Salonen, but the Puerto Rico Hurricanes still won the game, 4-3. Salonen threw 8.0 innings of 4-hit ball. Kurt Bradshaw got the win, improving to 1-0. He pitched 9 innings, giving up 7 hits and 3 runs, while striking out 12 and walking 3. The win puts Puerto Rico at 4-5.

The game ended with a bang. In the bottom of the ninth, with Puerto Rico trailing 3-1, Ted Simmons jumped on a 2-2 fastball from Juan Flores for a 3-run home run, sending the Hurricanes to a walk-off win.

Simmons called winning a team effort. "It's not the same guy every time," he said. "It's the sum of the parts."
