Pioneers Win, 7-6, at Houston
The Houston Comets could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Jay Hunt into a win. Instead, the St. Louis Pioneers prevailed, 7-6. Hunt threw 6.0 innings of 2-hit ball. Lloyd Ethridge claimed the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2.1 innings. His record stands at 7-6. St. Louis is now 77-81.

St. Louis used a timely hit from Tom Spruill to get the win. The shortstop stroked a 2-run double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Pioneers ahead, 6-5. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"We found a way to get it done," Spruill said.
