Blues Win at Houston, 8-6
Led by Joe Keenan, the New York City Blues downed the Houston Mavericks, 8-6. Keenan was 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 for the Blues. The winning pitcher was John Stone. His record now stands at 9-5. The right-hander went 5 innings, allowing 5 runs on 7 hits for the Blues. New York City has won 3 straight, while Houston has lost 3 in a row.

New York City second baseman Paul Silver contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the eighth. With two down, he hit a fastball to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 60th hit of the season and put the Blues ahead, 8-5.

Blues manager Kurt Schull wasn't all too pleased, despite the win, telling reporters that the performance highlighted some clear areas for improvement moving forward. He refused to be more specific, however. "I'm not gonna publicize our weaknesses," he said. "That stuff stays in the clubhouse."
