Chávez Pops Two Homers in 6-4 Win for Orlando
Getting a good performance from second baseman Miguel Chávez, the Orlando Oracles defeated the Houston Colt .45s, 6-4. Chávez went 2 for 4 with 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice for the Oracles. Juan Flores got credit for the save for Orlando. It was his 4th of the year. The Oracles now have a record of 10-24.

Chávez had a key at-bat for Orlando early in the game. With a runner on 1st, he hit a 2-run home run. It was his 8th home run of the season and gave Orlando an early 2-0 lead.

"It was our day today," Chávez told the Orlando Times. "But we've got to keep our nose to the grindstone."
