Robinson Hits Two Homers in 8-5 Win for Chicago
The Chicago Hawks defeated the Houston Drillers, 8-5, at Hyde Park Stadium. Chicago was led by 29-year old first baseman Alex Robinson, who was 2 for 4 with 2 home runs, while adding 5 RBI and scoring twice. Houston is 6-4 after the defeat.

With Chicago leading 5-3 in the bottom of the fifth, Robinson hit a changeup from Larry Bilski for a 3-run home run. It was his 5th home run of the season and put the Hawks ahead, 8-3.

"We played hard and won," said Robinson. "Sometimes, baseball really is that easy.'
