Gamblers Score Late, Upend Utes, 5-4
The Las Vegas Gamblers picked up a win at Gambler Field, knocking off the Utah Utes, 5-4. Starting pitcher Roger Blackwood was a big reason why. The loss makes Utah 10-10.

Had Ken Sanders not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Sanders hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 5-4, in favor of the Gamblers.

"Roger was doing a good job pouring in strikes," said Las Vegas manager Ray Brooks.
