Colt 45s Win at New York, 8-3
Roger Clemens, who leads the NL in quality starts with 14, had a strong outing for the Houston Colt 45s against the New York Gothams at Polo Grounds. The right-hander was a big part of his team's 8-3 win. The Colt 45s raised their record to 50-51.

Houston used the hitting of Jim O'Rourke to pick up the win. The catcher clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Colt 45s on top, 3-1. For the game, O'Rourke had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Getting ahead of the hitters was the key," said Clemens.
