Colt 45s Bounce Gothams, 7-6
Houston second baseman Grant Johnson played a vital role in his team's 7-6 conquest of New York. He was 1 for 2 with a home run, a walk, and was hit by a pitch. He scored 2 times and drove in 3 for Houston. Tug McGraw earned his 12th save in 13 chances. The win elevated the Colt 45s to 51-51.

Houston used a clutch at-bat from Jim Wynn to capture the win. The left fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Colt 45s ahead, 4-2. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Wynn. "And not try to do too much."
