The Houston Colt .45s got a strong performance from pitcher Will Evans, who stymied the Montreal offense en route to a win, 4-2, at Delorimier Stadium. Evans, now 1-1, was the winner. In 5.1 innings, he gave up 6 hits, while striking out 10, walking 2, and allowing 1 run. Houston is now 101-57, 8 games up in the Ursa Division.

Houston relied on the hitting of Virgil McDonald to pick up the win. The third baseman clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Colt .45s on top, 2-0. For the game, McDonald had 1 home run and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

"Say want you want about this team, they play nine innings hard," said Houston manager Crash Davis.
