Millers Drop Comets, 5-3
The Minneapolis Millers beat the Houston Comets, 5-3. Minneapolis pitcher and New York, native Hank Wagner led the way. Wagner got the win, improving to 1-0. He gave up 4 hits and walked 5 over 8 innings. He allowed 3 runs. The defeat makes Houston 2-2.

Minneapolis relied on the hitting of Tony Nava to pick up the win. The second baseman ripped a run-scoring single in the top of the sixth inning to put the Millers on top, 5-3. For the game, Nava had 1 triple and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"Some wins are easy and some are difficult, but either way we come to the ballpark ready to work hard every day," Nava told the Minneapolis Chronicle.
