Drillers Victorious at Detroit, 5-2
The Houston Drillers picked up a win at Wolverine Field, taking down the Detroit Wolverines, 5-2. Starting pitcher Larry Bilski was a big reason why. Bilski picked up the win for Houston, going 8 innings. He gave up 2 runs on 8 hits. He now sports a record of 5-3. Houston is now 23-25, while Detroit is 24-24.

Houston used a well-timed hit by Jackie Frost to capture the win. The right fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Drillers ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

"I thought we competed really well," said Drillers manager Tom Harrington. "I thought the energy was really good."
