Beavers Win, 8-1, at Hollywood
The Portland Beavers got a stellar performance from pitcher Larry French, who handcuffed the Hollywood offense en route to a win, 8-1, at Gilmore Field. Portland has now won 3 straight, while the Stars have lost 3 in a row.

Portland used a well-timed hit by Steve Mesner to capture the win. The second baseman socked a bases-clearing double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Beavers ahead, 4-1. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"We swung the bats good throughout the lineup," said Portland skipper Steve McCarthy.
