"Deafening," Gordon recalls now, 30 years later. "You couldn't hear your own scream." The sheer force left him and his friend trapped in a chaotic scene.
The floor was littered with broken glass. Everything that was in the kitchen cabinets - dishes, glasses, pots and pans - fell out and became a two-foot high pile of debris.
Gordon and his Northridge City Little League teammates now remember that summer as the time their world was turned upside down until their magical run to Williamsport, Pa., provided profound and cathartic joy.
To make matters worse, Dunlap and his mom had no way of getting back home. Several overpasses on the 5, 10, 118 and 210 freeways had collapsed.
