Houston Beats Seattle, 6-5
Though he had a terrific game, Don Gerwig could not prevent his team, the Seattle Emeralds, from absorbing a loss. Houston won the game, 6-5. Gerwig was 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. The winning pitcher was Dick Knight. He tossed 104 pitches over 6.1 innings, allowing 5 runs on 10 hits. Houston is now 17-20, Seattle 19-17.

Houston used the hitting of Jackie Frost to pick up the win. The right fielder clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Drillers on top, 4-1. For the game, Frost had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"Honestly, I'm not frustrated," said Seattle manager Mark Velez. "The effort was great."
