Los Angeles Defeated By Aztecs, 7-5
Mexico City and Los Angeles duked it out and the Aztecs came out victorious.

The Mexico City Aztecs had to overcome a big game from Los Angeles shortstop Loïc Buenaventura to leave Ballpark of Mexico City with a victory. And they did, winning, 7-5. Buenaventura went 4-5 with 3 doubles. He scored 3 runs. Jorge Garza earned the win to go to 8-14. He allowed 2 runs on 7 hits, with no walks and 11 strikeouts in 6.2 innings of work.

Alfonso Alfaro had a big 2-run home run for the Aztecs in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Mexico City leading 4-1 and a runner on 2nd, he sized up a fastball from 28-year old right-handed pitcher Yoshitoshi Murata and punished it. The result was his 30th home run of the season, which put the Aztecs on top, 6-1.

"Trying isn't good enough in this league," said Alfaro. "You've got to get results."

Mexico City raised its record to 75-70 with the win.
