Drillers Earn Late Win
No one was more impactful than Mike Lockhart in an extra-inning, 5-4 Houston win over Baltimore. Lockhart, who finished 5th in the NBL in home runs with 21 in 1967, went 3 for 3 with 3 singles and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs. Rick McStay, 2-0, earned the win in relief. He allowed no runs on no hits in 2 innings. The win gives Houston a record of 14-9.

The Drillers got a clutch hit from pinch hitter Al Thompson. In the bottom of the 11th, he hit a run-scoring single to center, to win the game for the Drillers.

"We'll enjoy this win for now, but it's just one," Lockhart told local reporters. "We've got to keep it going."
