Colt .45s Come Up Short at Kinuso, 3-2
Blues Ballpark was the site of a tense game between the Houston Colt .45s and Kinuso Blues.

Kinuso pitcher Tom Seaver did his part in helping his team beat the Houston Colt .45s, 3-2. The right-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. Ken Brett closed the game out for Kinuso, earning his 5th save.

Ricardo Vivo dealt the Colt .45s a blow in the bottom of the seventh. Batting with a runner on 3rd and Kinuso leading 2-0, Vivo, who finished 3rd in the UL in triples with 9 in 1969, hit a full count curveball for a run-scoring single.

"Got a lot of swings and misses today," said Seaver.

The loss lowers the Houston record to 19-12.
