Seagulls 6-5 Victors Over Houston
Seagulls first baseman Don Johnson left his imprint on his team's 6-5 win over the Houston Drillers. Johnson was 3-5 with a home run and a triple. He scored 2 times for San Francisco in the contest. San Francisco reliever Dave Maughan picked up the win, upping his record to 1-1. Tom McAteer absorbed the loss. The loss puts Houston at 6-3.

Bob Russell went 1-3 with a double and a walk for San Francisco. With one out and the game tied in the bottom of the eighth inning, Russell, who was drafted in the 2nd round of the 1967 draft, had a clutch at-bat. Facing Houston hurler Tom McAteer, he hit a sacrifice fly to give the Seagulls a 6-5 lead.

"It was a solid team effort," said Johnson after the game.
