Stars Sink Emeralds, 7-1
The Las Vegas Stars went home winners at Civic Stadium, thanks in large part to starter Rich Wortham. Wortham stifled the Eugene Emeralds, enabling Las Vegas to grab the 7-1 win. In 8.2 innings, Wortham surrendered 9 hits, while striking out 6 and walking 6. He allowed 1 run. At 71-60, the Stars claim second place in the NL AAA West.

Las Vegas used the bat of Keith Lieppman to get the win. The third baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Stars ahead, 5-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"I found a nice groove out there," said Wortham.
