Colt 45s Win 6-4 Walk-Off
The Birmingham Black Barons got a superb performance from pitcher Tim Hudson. Still, it wasn't enough to beat Houston. The Colt 45s won the game, 6-4. Hudson threw 8.0 innings of 5-hit ball. After today's action, Houston sits at 33-34; Birmingham slips to 31-35.

The game came to a dramatic end. In the bottom of the ninth, with Houston trailing 4-2, Casey Stengel hit a fastball from Steve Bedrosian for a grand slam home run, giving the Colt 45s the walk-off win.

Stengel told the Houston News: "Sometimes the big stage is not big enough for me."
