The Philadelphia Keystones beat the Houston Comets, 2-1, at Broad Street Park II. Starting pitcher James Powers was a big reason why. He held his opponent in check all game. The Keystones now own a record of 61-69.

The win was a team effort for Philadelphia. Left Fielder Jake Butler was among the key contributors. In the bottom of the first, he put his team in front, 2-0, when he hit a 2-run single.

"Not enough offense on our side," lamented Houston manager Glenn Carney.
