Houston Beats Seattle, 4-2
Houston pitcher Jerry Zaruba had a large part in his team beating the Seattle Emeralds, 4-2. The right-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. Houston is now 23-14, Seattle 16-20.

Houston took a 4-2 lead on Mike Lockhart's 4th home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Lockhart hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Seattle pitcher Denny Goldberg visibly frustrated.

"I just try to bring what I bring to this team," said Lockhart.
