Northmen Roll to 9-3 Win Over Drillers
Twin Cities Northmen starter Ben Hall pitched effectively against the Houston Drillers at Twin Cities Stadium. The right-hander spearheaded his team's 9-3 win. Hall, now 5-2, was the winner. In 6.2 innings, he gave up 7 hits, while striking out 3, walking 4, and allowing 3 runs. The Twin Cities win streak is now 3 games.

The Northmen got a big hit from shortstop Buddy Shingleton. Facing Houston pitcher Bill Switzer in the bottom of the fifth, Shingleton pounded a 3-run home run to center. His 6th home run of the season put the Northmen ahead, 8-1.

"You can never predict what'll happen," Shingleton said. "That's why you play the game."
