Cuban Giants Nip Colt 45s, 6-5
The Miami Cuban Giants had to overcome a fine effort from Houston pitcher Stephen Strasburg to grab a narrow 6-5 win at Minute Maid Park. Strasburg went 7.2 innings and allowed 1 run. Braden Looper, now 1-0, was credited with the win. He allowed 1 run on 4 hits, while striking out 0 and walking 0. The win has Miami at 41-62.

Miami used the timely hitting of Chris Hoiles to seize the win. The catcher stroked a 2-run single in the top of the 12th inning to put the Cuban Giants on top, 6-4. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

In postgame comments to the Miami Daily News, Hoiles said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
