Drillers Collect 6-4 Win Over Northmen
The Houston Drillers bested the Twin Cities Northmen by a score of 6-4, with center fielder Jackie Frost getting the main credit. On the day, Frost went 4-7 with a double and 3 singles, while scoring 2 times for the Drillers. Mike Della Rocca earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 2 innings. His record is now 7-2. Twin Cities, at 33-62, has lost 5 straight.

The game was all tied up in the top of the 13th, until Frost delivered big-time for Houston, stroking a dramatic run-scoring single off Tommy Lloyd. The game-changing hit put the Drillers on top, 5-4.

"This team is real focused right now," said Houston manager Steven Palps.
