Dean Helps Little Rock Take World Series Game 1
The Little Rock Golden Gophers started the World Series in style, downing the visiting Santa Barbara Super Troopers at Little Rock Grounds by a score of 9-5 to grab an early 1-0 lead in the best-of-7 series. Golden Gophers third baseman Matt Dean belted 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice.

Dean contributed in the bottom of the fifth. With runners on 1st and 3rd, he hit a run-scoring single. It was one at-bat among others that helped Little Rock get the win.

"It was a good night for them and a bad night for us," said Santa Barbara manager Jimmy Jacobs.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Little Rock Grounds in Little Rock.
