Rallying Drillers Get 6-5 Win
The Houston Drillers handed the Montreal Habitants a 6-5 defeat at Sam Houston Field. Catcher Rich Lewis starred for Houston. He was 4-5 with 2 doubles and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Montreal drops to 15-13.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With two out, Lewis hit a fastball from Mark Weeks for a run-scoring single. The Drillers, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"Walking a team off at the end -- there's no greater feeling," said Lewis.
