Sunday, October 6th , 1974
The sweet swing of Jackie Frost has led his team through the Divisional Round.

The Houston Drillers star earned series MVP honors as his club downed the San Francisco Seagulls to advance to the League Championship Series.

The Drillers won the final game at Sam Houston Field by a score of 6-0 and the series 4-1.

"I'm seeing the ball well and happy to contribute to a win," said Frost. "I hope it continues for the rest of the playoffs."

For the series, Frost hit .381 with a .381 on-base percentage. He had 1 home runs, drove in 4 RBI and scored 1 runs.

The Houston Drillers don't know who they will face in the next round. They will play the winner of the Baltimore Lords - Detroit Wolverines series. Detroit leads the series 3 games to 2. The League Championship Series schedule will be announced after the Divisional Round finishes.
