Emeralds Snatch Late-Game, 6-5 Win
Houston third baseman Wade Fields had a terrific game, but it still wasn't enough to get his team a win. Fields was 2-4 with a double. He drove in 4 runs, even as Seattle beat the Drillers, 6-5. Dooley Brewer converted his 8th save in 15 tries. The 'W' lifts Seattle's record to 75-82.

Seattle used the timely hitting of Don Pelletier to seize the win. The pinch hitter stroked a 2-run single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Emeralds on top, 6-5. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"We'll put this win in our pocket and go after the next one," said Pelletier.
