Jackson Delivers Walk-Off Win for Drillers
Houston beat Twin Cities at Sam Houston Field, eking out a 6-5 win. The win was due in large part to left fielder Mark Sisson. He was 2 for 3 with 2 singles and a walk, while scoring 2. After today's action, Houston sits at 28-23, while Twin Cities falls to 19-32.

Bobby Jackson was the walk-off hero for Houston. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Drillers center fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Walking a team off at the end -- there's no greater feeling," said Sisson.
