Stars Ballpark was the site for Western Conference action featuring the Kansas City Athletics and Los Angeles Stars.

A good performance from left fielder Cody McLaughlin helped the Los Angeles Stars defeat the Kansas City Athletics, 8-4. McLaughlin went 3 for 3 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 2 for the Stars. Los Angeles starter Corey LaCognata was credited with the win after throwing 101 pitches over 5.2 innings. His record now stands at 13-10.

Eliecer Arruebarrena had a big run-scoring double for the Stars in the bottom of the second inning. With Los Angeles leading 2-1 and a runner on 1st, he got a fastball from 26-year old right-handed pitcher Frank Hubert and swatted a double to right-center. It was his 30th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Stars ahead, 3-1.

"I put some good swings on the ball," said McLaughlin.

The Stars saw their record improve to 75-70.
