Blue Crabs Get Road Win, 11-4
The Ocean City Blue Crabs knocked off the Hartford Whalers, 11-4, at Wolves Ballpark. Kent Hrbek, who captured player of the game honors, was a big reason Ocean City won. The first baseman went 2 for 4 with 2 home runs and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 2. The Blue Crabs bumped their record to 34-24 with this latest triumph.

Ocean City used the clutch hitting of Mark Little to capture the win. The right fielder drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Blue Crabs ahead, 4-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"We did more than enough to get the win," said Little.
