Van Slyke Excels, Homestead Levels Houston
The Homestead Grays beat the Houston Colt 45s by a score of 13-2. Homestead third baseman Andy Van Slyke deserved the lion's share of the credit. Van Slyke went 3-5 with 2 home runs. He drove in 5 runs and scored twice for the Grays. Doug Drabek, the winning pitcher, is now 4-5. He went 6 innings, allowing 2 runs on 4 hits, while fanning 4 and walking 2. The win puts Homestead at 52-42 this season.

Homestead grabbed the momentum in the top of the fifth, when Van Slyke hit a 2-run home run off Toad Ramsey. His 11th home run of the season put the Grays out in front, 3-1.

Houston manager Daniel Makonnen called the blowout loss "nothing to write home about."
