Houston Gets 5-3 Win
Houston Drillers starter Jerry White was locked-in. He led his team to a win over the Montreal Habitants, 5-3. White went 9 innings to notch the win. He scattered 7 hits, walked 3, and struck out 7. His record improves to 6-12. Houston is now 82-74, Montreal 80-75.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Bill Goff? The Houston first baseman had a bases-clearing double in the top of the first inning to put the Drillers on top, 4-0. For the game, Goff had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

Goff said his team "played with focus."
