Drillers Improve to 80-45 with 8-2 Win
Houston took on Montreal in front of a lively crowd.

The Houston Drillers and starting pitcher Randy Robins stifled the Montreal offense en route to a comfortable 8-2 win at LaSalle Stadium. The second-place Habitants have lost 4 consecutive games.

Houston used the hitting of Mark Sisson to pick up the win. The center fielder clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Drillers on top, 4-0. For the game, Sisson had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"I still think this team can play even better," Sisson told the Houston Citizen.
