Chiefs Rebuff Comets, 7-6
The home crowd had a good time watching the Houston Comets and Chicago Chiefs get after it.

No one was more impactful than Joe Siniscalchi in the 7-6 Chicago win over Houston. Siniscalchi, who finished 3rd in the FA in home runs with 25 last year, was 1-2 with a home run and 2 walks, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Frank Carmichael recorded the save. In save chances, he's now 3 for 5.

Siniscalchi had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the seventh. On a full count fastball from Joe McCarthy, he banged a 2-run home run to left-center, giving the Chiefs a 7-6 lead. It was the 6th home run of the year for Siniscalchi.

"I put some good swings on the ball tonight," said Siniscalchi.

Chicago has won 3 straight, while Houston has lost 3 in a row.
