Brett Slugs Colt 45s to 11-6 Win
The Houston Colt 45s grabbed a win, 11-6, over the Indianapolis ABCs at Crosley Field. Houston third baseman George Brett went 3-5 with 2 home runs. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. Houston goes to 69-65. The win puts them 2 games up in their division.

Jackie Warner came through with a big-time hit for Houston. The designated hitter smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 8-6. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"Getting a lot of baserunners and getting some timely hits, it's a good combination," said Warner.
