Drillers Edge Hawks, 3-2
The Houston Drillers and Chicago Hawks played an exciting game.

In a low-scoring tilt between the Houston Drillers and the Chicago Hawks, former first round draft pick Syed Farooqi was the difference-maker. The Houston right-hander spearheaded the 3-2 win. Farooqi got the win, improving to 1-0. He gave up 4 hits and walked 4 over 7 innings. He allowed 2 runs.

Houston used a clutch at-bat from Mark Sisson to capture the win. The center fielder hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Drillers ahead, 2-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"I was trying to do what I do, go out there and compete," said Farooqi.

The win has Houston at 3-0.
