Houston center fielder Mark Sisson helped his team beat the Montreal Habitants, 14-2. Sisson, who finished 2nd in the ABL in runs with 123 in 1970, went 2 for 5 for the Drillers. Picking up the win was Dick Knight. He went 8.2 innings, allowing 2 runs on 6 hits. The right--hander struck out 5 and walked 1. With the win, Houston pushed its record to 70-63.

Making an impact for the home team was Dick Knight. In the bottom of the second, the 26-year old right-handed pitcher had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. That made the score 2-0, Drillers.

"Not much went our way," said Montreal manager Michel Alexandre Cauchon.
