The Houston Comets beat the Atlanta Copperheads, 12-3, at Peachtree Stadium. The Comets got a fine performance from catcher Jerry Robinson, who went 3 for 5 with a double, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times. The winning pitcher was George Roy. He's now 7-11. He went 7 innings, allowing 3 runs on 9 hits for the Comets. The second-place Comets improved to 64-56.

Houston first baseman Frank Bailey contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the third. With two down, he hit a fastball to center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 73rd hit of the season and put the Comets ahead, 4-3.

"Very pleased with the effort on our side," said Bailey.
