The Quad City Angels, a Class-A team for the California Angels, paid $2,700 to a South Bend, Ind., court to retrieve equipment seized Monday night by police.

The Angels had just played the South Bend White Sox, when police entered the locker room and confiscated the equipment in a dispute over a bill with a hotel.

Owner of The Works Hotel, T. Brooks Brademas, said the Midwest League team had failed to pay a bill from last year. The equipment--including uniforms, bats and helmets--was seized as part of a default judgment awarded to the hotel.
