Colt 45s Win Thriller, 9-8
Minute Maid Park was host to some action-packed drama.

The Houston Colt 45s defeated the Indianapolis ABCs, 9-8, in part because of right fielder Tony Gwynn. Gwynn belted 2 home runs, while scoring 3 and driving in 3 for the Colt 45s. With the win, the Colt 45s have a record of 52-51.

Houston got a knockout punch from Craig Biggio. The second baseman hammered a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"This place was electric at the end," Biggio said.
