Houston Dealt 7-4 Defeat
The Seattle Emeralds defeated the Houston Drillers, 7-4, at Puget Field. Javier Guerra, who was drafted in the 3rd round of the 1969 draft, was a standout performer for Seattle. His 2 hits included 1 single and 1 double -- this in addition to the 2 runs he scored and 1 he knocked in. Carroll Reynolds recorded his 5th save for Seattle. Seattle now has a record of 68-52 with the win.

Roberto Salazar had a key at-bat with two out in the bottom of the seventh for Seattle. With the bases loaded and the Emeralds leading 5-4, he drew a walk, driving in 1 run.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Guerra. "And not try to do too much."
