Moore Takes Chainsaw to Montreal Bats in 5-2 Win
Chris Moore was superb against Montreal. The right-hander, who leads the UL with a 15.6 K/9 rate, had a fastball that was virtually unhittable at times. The result was a Colt .45s victory. The score was 5-2. The Colt .45s have hit the ground running, raising their record to 21-5. While it's still too soon to talk about Houston hoisting their 11th Polaris Classic trophy, fans are getting excited about their strong start.

Moore was in the zone all game. He frustrated Montreal hitters while giving the Colt .45s 7 innings of quality work. Moore threw 97 pitches, allowing 1 hit and getting 13 punchouts.

"This team's hitting on all cylinders," said Colt .45s manager Crash Davis.
