Houston starter Bill Switzer pitched well against the Baltimore Lords at Seton Hill Stadium. The left-hander led his team to a win, 11-3. Houston is now 93-67, while Baltimore is 80-80.

Houston used the hitting of Rich Lewis to pick up the win. The catcher clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Drillers on top, 4-1. For the game, Lewis had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"We didn't pitch good, and when you don't pitch good, you lose," said Baltimore manager Steve Read.
