Millers Lose, 7-6, in 10
Thanks in large part to third baseman Ernie Carter, the Houston Comets clipped the Minneapolis Millers, 7-6, in 10 innings. Carter was 3-5 with 2 doubles and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Minneapolis is 5-3 after the defeat.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the tenth. With two out, Carter hit a sinker from Wayne Stevens for a run-scoring single. The Comets, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"Exhilarating win," said Carter.
