Black Barons Lose to Colt 45s, 9-4
The Houston Colt 45s finished off the Birmingham Black Barons, 9-4. Much of the credit belonged to left fielder Jim Wynn. Wynn was 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2 for the Colt 45s. By defeating Birmingham, the 4th-place Colt 45s improved to 26-32.

The Black Barons had been locked in a 2-2 tie with the Colt 45s going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 28-year old first baseman Andrés Galarraga came to the plate. Galarraga hit a 3-run home run on a 1-1 changeup from Birmingham hurler Lefty Gomez. It was Galarraga's 11th home run of the year.

"Nice to tuck this win away," said Galarraga.
