Aztecs Overwhelm Stars, 16-6
The home crowd had a good time watching the Hollywood Stars and Mexico City Aztecs get after it.

Mexico City shortstop Danny Velasquez had 3 ribbies while helping his team defeat the Hollywood Stars, 16-6. The winning pitcher was 34-year old right-handed pitcher Jay Sikora. He tossed 86 pitches over 5.1 innings, allowing 5 runs on 8 hits.

Early in the game, first baseman Mike Townsend had a bases-clearing double for Mexico City. It was his 2nd double of the season and put the Aztecs on top, 3-0.

"I'm trying to see the ball big, see the ball up in the zone and put the barrel on it," Velasquez told the Mexico City Bulletin.

The triumph puts Mexico City at 90-64 for the season.
