Emeralds Win at Houston, 10-4
The Seattle Emeralds beat the Houston Drillers, 10-4, at Sam Houston Field. Roberto Soto, in particular, was impressive. He was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 3. Bill Lemley, the 17th overall pick in the 1971 draft, was the winning pitcher. Over 5 innings, he allowed 2 runs on 3 hits, with 6 walks and no strikeouts. The setback makes Houston 66-55.

Seattle used the hitting of Mike Green to pick up the win. The left fielder clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Emeralds on top, 3-0. For the game, Green had 1 home run and 1 single in 3 at-bats.

"Just glad I could help us get a win," said Green.
