Roadrunners Nose Past Houston, 3-2
Though he had a great game, Josh Ball could not single-handedly produce a win for Houston. San Diego won the game, 3-2. Ball was 4 for 5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles. Jonathan Benders, 4-4, earned the win in relief. He allowed no runs on no hits in 2 innings. The setback makes Houston 20-30.

Jon Nelson, who is tied for 10th in the WC in hits with 60, had a direct impact on the outcome. Nelson contributed a run-scoring hit-by-pitch in the top of the ninth inning to put San Diego up, 3-2.

Nelson told reporters after the game: "Runs were at a premium, so a good win for us."
