Los Angeles Hangs 7-5 Loss on Houston
The Los Angeles Suns overcame a good performance by Houston center fielder Hank Andrew to knock off Houston, 7-5, at Wilshire Park. Andrew went 2 for 3 with a double and a walk, while scoring 2. The victory makes Los Angeles 16-9, as the team seeks a return to the playoffs in 1975.

Los Angeles first baseman Bill Calvin contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the fifth. With two down, he hit a fastball to center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 16th hit of the season and put the Suns ahead, 4-3.

"It wasn't our best performance," said Calvin, "but a win in this league is nothing to sniff at."
