The Hartford Whalers got a sterling performance from pitcher Joo-seok Yi, but the Nuggets still prevailed, 2-1. Yi was named the player of the game in a losing cause. He threw 7 innings of shutout ball. Jorge Garza got the save, the 2nd for him this season. Rocky Mountain, now 6-1, is setting the league on fire so far.

Mark Melton's hit in the top of the tenth was a game-changer. With one out, he rapped a slider from Ryoichi Maruyama for a run-scoring double. It put Rocky Mountain in front, 2-1.

"The game is never over 'til it's over," said a jubilant Andy McDonald, the Rocky Mountain skipper.
