Bulls Snag 5-3 Win
The Houston Bulls had to overcome a fine effort from San Diego pitcher Tommy Anderson to grab a narrow 5-3 win at Langley Field. Anderson went 9 innings and allowed 5 runs. Dan Rivard was the winner. Over 8 innings, he allowed 3 runs on 7 hits, with 1 walk and 3 strikeouts. Jim Bob Jones sewed up the save, his 11th.

Johnny Bunce made it 5-3 in favor of Houston when he delivered a 2-run single. It came with two out in the top of the ninth. The Bulls went on to win.

"It's not about individual awards," Bunce told a Houston Chronicle reporter after the game. "It's about winning championships. That's what we play for."

The win makes Houston 61-48.
