Houston pitcher Francisco Castro did his part in helping his team beat the Dallas Wranglers, 9-3. The right-hander kept opposing batters from doing too much damage. Castro, the winner, moves to 8-8. He threw 6 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 4 and giving up 4 walks. The Houston win streak is now 3 games.

Early in the game, left fielder Mike Wells had a solo home run for Houston. It was his 21st home run of the season and put the Drillers on top, 1-0.

"Francisco is a gamer," said Houston manager Tom Harrington.
