Bulls Get Past Oakland for 3-2 Win | The Houston Bulls got a strong performance from pitcher Bunny Edwards, who stymied the Oakland offense en route to a win, 3-2, at Bulls Stadium. Edwards picked up the win for Houston, going 8 innings. He gave up 2 runs on 6 hits. He now sports a record of 4-1. Houston, with the win, is 18-9.
Houston took a 3-2 lead on Dave Doolittle's 6th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Doolittle hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Oakland pitcher Danny Goff Jr. visibly frustrated.
"Honestly, I'm not frustrated," said Oakland manager Bill Hunter. "The effort was great." | |
