Drillers Walk It Off for 24th Win of Season
Los Angeles got a terrific performance from pitcher Bob Powell, but it wasn't enough to beat the Houston Drillers. Houston won the Sam Houston Field contest, 3-2. Powell threw 9.0 innings of 3-hit ball for the losing team. Jerry Pederson, now 3-0, picked up the win in relief. He allowed no runs on 2 hits in 3 innings. Houston has now won 3 in a row.

The Drillers got a clutch hit from right fielder Jackie Frost. In the bottom of the 11th, he delivered a run-scoring single to win the game for the Drillers.

Frost told a Houston Citizen reporter that he felt "ecstatic" after the win.
