Guest Drills 2 Homers in 7-2 Seattle Win
Dustin Guest made an impact in the 7-2 Seattle win over Houston. Guest, who led the ABL in batting average with .332 in 1970, slugged 2 home runs, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. Their 46-38 record puts the Emeralds 4th in the American Baseball League Western Division.

Seattle grabbed the momentum in the top of the fifth, when Guest hit a 2-run home run off Bill Switzer. His 8th home run of the season put the Emeralds out in front, 4-2.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Guest told the Seattle Chronicle.
