Razor-Sharp Bilski Blanks Dallas
Larry Bilski kept the Dallas Wranglers hitters from doing much damage at Bluff Park.

Dallas could only muster 2 hits and draw no walks against the right-handed Bilski, who controlled them throughout the game. Houston won the contest, 2-0. Bilski added 3 strikeouts in his complete-game effort.

"I don't know if I was on or if they were off today," Bilski told reporters after the shutout win. "But whatever it was, I hope it happens again next time."

To date, Bilski has a 16-8 mark in 35 starts with a 3.07 ERA. He has given up 206 hits in 258 innings, struck out 226 and issued 54 walks. Opposing clubs have compiled a .219 batting average against him.
