Houston pitcher Syed Farooqi had a large part in his team subduing the Dallas Wranglers, 7-1. The opposition could never mount much of a rally against the right-hander. The Drillers, now 88-63, have won 8 in a row.

Farooqi scattered 3 hits over 9 innings for the Drillers. With the win, Farooqi moves to 16-3 on the year with 130 strikeouts.

"We did a lot of things right," said Farooqi.
