In a close game it was the Manchester Minutemen 6, the Houston Astros 4 at
Manchester Park.
Bob Forsch(2-0) had a steady outing. He allowed 11 hits and 4 walks in 8 and
2/3 innings. Houston had a chance in the 9th but they came up short.
Kent Tekulve was credited with his 1st save. Burt Hooton(0-1) was given the
loss. Despite losing Herb Wilson was optimistic after the game. 'We'll get
over this one. Sometimes the breaks fall your way, sometimes they don't.
Any one of a dozen little things go different, and we come out on top.'
