The Houston Drillers picked up a win at Atlantic Avenue Grounds, taking down the Boston Terriers, 6-5. Starting pitcher Gary Decker was a big reason why. The save was credited to Tim Fried, his 15th. The win boosted Houston to 73-68.

John Hart, the 33-year old catcher , had a direct impact on the outcome. Hart contributed a 2-run single in the top of the third inning to put Houston up, 5-1.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Hart told the Houston Daily News. "It's as simple as that."
