Drillers Pick Up 4-2 Win Against New York
Houston turned a good performance from starting pitcher Larry Bilski into a 4-2 triumph over the New York Empires at Sam Houston Field. The Houston winning streak has reached 3 games.

Mickey Hoffman had a clutch at-bat with one out in the bottom of the sixth for the Drillers. Coming up with the bases loaded and Houston trailing 2-1, he hit a 2-run single.

"Bottom line," said New York skipper Dan Whiting, "we didn't play well enough to win."
