Bobby Bonds slammed a homerun and had 4 RBI as the River City Rascals topped the Baltimore Terrapins by a score of 9 to 5 at Fenway Park.
The River City fans enjoyed the offense provided by Bonds. He bombed a two-run dinger (his 1st of the season) in the 5th inning, laced a one-base hit in the 7th inning and slapped a single scoring a run in the 8th inning. River City banged out 11 on the night.
Paul Lindblad(1-0) was the winner allowing 1 run in 2 innings. Brent Strom(0-2) was charged with the loss in relief. He pitched 2/3 of an inning and surrendered 3 hits and no walks.
