Andrew Slugs Comets to 5-1 Win
The Houston Comets handed the Detroit Dynamos a 5-1 defeat at Thompson Field. Center Fielder Hank Andrew starred for Houston. He slugged 2 home runs. He scored 3 runs and drove in 4. The loss drops Detroit to 6-8.

With Houston leading 1-0 in the top of the third, Andrew hit a sinker from Jack Williams for a 3-run home run. It was his 2nd home run of the season and put the Comets ahead, 4-0.

Said losing manager Roger Cleaves: "It's very easy to sit in an ivory tower and critique the pitching, but the bottom line is we need to score runs."
