Prentice Fires Shutout in Drillers Victory
It wasn't easy but the Houston Drillers made it look that way.

Starter Danny Prentice shut out the San Francisco Seagulls despite having what he later called "sub-par" stuff, and the Houston Drillers cruised to victory, 2-0. Prentice allowed only 6 hits and rang up 2 strikeouts but insisted later that he did not deserve primary credit for the win.

"It didn't feel quite right today, but I got a lot of help to get through," he said. "I trusted my catcher and the guys behind me bailed me out more than once when I screwed up."

Prentice has a 19-6 season record so far. In 29 starts, he has fanned 121 batters in 234.1 innings with a 2.65 ERA.
