Houston Pockets 7-2 Win Over Minneapolis
The Houston Comets rode a solid performance from 29-year-old starting pitcher Pete Jones to a win, beating the Minneapolis Millers, 7-2, at Dalton Domed Stadium. Jones picked up the win for Houston, going 6 innings. He gave up 1 run on 5 hits. He now sports a record of 8-3. Houston has now won 3 in a row.

John Edwards, who finished 2nd in the FA in wins above replacement with 8.5 in 1969, took Minneapolis hurler Daryl Woods deep in the bottom of the fifth. His 3-run home run put the Comets on top, 4-1. In all, Edwards had 1 single in addition to the home run, while going 2 for 4.

"We didn't play well enough to win," Minneapolis skipper Bill Bryan said.
