Hawks Win at Houston, 2-1
Houston pitcher Oscar Contreras gave the Hawks all they could handle, but in the end, Chicago left Sam Houston Field with a win, 2-1. Contreras allowed 2 runs on 4 hits over 8 innings. The victory gives the Hawks a record of 55-43.

Chicago used the bat of George Turner to get the win. The right fielder hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Hawks ahead, 2-1. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Turner told the Chicago Herald.
