Wranglers Suffer 14-1 Drubbing
The Houston Drillers got production from their entire lineup in an easy 14-1 win over the Dallas Wranglers. Doing his part was left fielder Mike Wells. Wells, who finished 4th in the ABL in on-base percentage with .400 in 1970, was 2-3 with 2 home runs and 2 walks. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. The Drillers have stumbled out of the gate, getting only their 4th win in 12 games.

Mark Sisson, who is tied for 8th in the ABL in stolen bases with 2, chipped in a run-scoring single for Houston in the bottom of the second. For the game, the center fielder had 2 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 2 runs scored, and 4 RBI.

Dallas manager William Albrecht called the pummeling "nothing to write home about."
