Almost There: Mexicali On Cusp of ST Triumph After 4-2 Win
Game was big. So was Bill Watson.

The Mexicali starter rose to the occasion at Bushwick Stadium today, earning player of the game honors after leading the Crossings to a crucial 4-2 victory over the Brooklyn Bums. Watson threw 8 innings allowing 2 runs as the Crossings won on the road to seize a - lead in the best-of- Sunset Trophy.

Tied up with the Bums in the top of the fourth inning, the Crossings got a boost from third baseman Chris Blevins. With runners on 2nd and 3rd, Blevins saw a 1-0 fastball from Griff Tosewell and hit a 2-run double to break the stalemate and put Mexicali on top, 3-1.

"We aren't quitting," Brooklyn manager Jon Lyons said. "Yeah, the odds are definitely in their favor, but they've got to earn it."

Game 7 is scheduled for Thursday in Mexicali. Slated to start are Norberto López for Brooklyn and Rafiq bin Wadi for Mexicali.
