The Toronto Trash Pandas got production from their entire lineup in an easy 16-2 win over the Chicago Gangsters. Doing his part was third baseman Mike Townsend. Townsend, who is a two-time All-Star, belted 2 home runs, while scoring 4 and driving in 6. With the loss, Chicago sinks to 0-3.

With Toronto leading 4-2 in the top of the fifth, Townsend came up to bat against Chicago pitcher Brian Kauppinen. Townsend hit a fastball to right-center for a 3-run home run. His 2nd home run of the season put the Trash Pandas on top, 7-2.

"Trying isn't good enough in this league," said Townsend. "You've got to get results."
