Comets Lambaste Keystones, 13-1
The Houston Comets bombarded the Philadelphia Keystones, 13-1, at Dalton Domed Stadium. Leading the blitz was John Edwards. He was 3-3 with 3 singles and a walk, while scoring 3 times and driving in 3 for Houston. Dutch Lane nailed down his 4th save. Houston, at 61-53, sits in second place in the Federal Association West.

Though it wasn't a flawless game -- few are -- the fans who filled the stands at Dalton Domed Stadium seemed to enjoy watching the Federal Association action.

"We got plowed under," said losing manager Charlie Leist. "Period. Full stop."
