Chargers Solve Miami in Extra Innings
The San Diego Chargers, despite a fine performance by Miami pitcher Chris Siefken, grabbed a 3-2 win at Chargers Stadium. Siefken allowed 1 run over 7 innings. Neil Meeks picked up the win in relief. Francisco Aloy took the loss for Miami. With this game in the books, San Diego is 24-20, Miami 26-18.

San Diego got a knockout punch from Bernie Cabrera. The pinch hitter hammered a solo home run in the bottom of the tenth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"We were in it," said Miami manager Walter Wilson. "We just didn't score enough runs."
