Starting pitcher Ron Lombardi pitched well enough to help the New Rochelle Purple Wave beat the Denver Pilots, 5-4. The Purple Wave raised their record to 5-2.

New Rochelle got a clutch hit from Jim Adams. The designated hitter launched a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a kill shot.

"We couldn't have scripted it any better," Adams said in his postgame press conference.
