Seattle pitcher Pat Burkholder did his part in helping his team defeat the Houston Drillers, 9-2. The opposition could never get too much going against the right-hander. Burkholder, now 8-7, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 4, walking 2, and allowing 2 runs. Seattle goes to 40-43, Houston to 34-50.

Early in the game, first baseman Rob Sylvia had a 2-run double for Seattle. It was his 3rd double of the season and put the Emeralds on top, 2-0.

"I wish every win came this easy," said Sylvia.
