Third baseman Buddy Bell had 2 base hits at Manchester Park as the Houston Astros beat the Manchester Minutemen 2 to 1.
Houston drew first blood jumping out to an early lead in the first inning when they tallied 2 runs on 3 hits. That early run support was all that Ed Halicki(1-0) required. The pitchers took over after the 2nd inning as neither team was able to score again.
Halicki got help from Gene Garber who earned his 1st save. Mickey Lolich(0-1) was the loser. He pitched 5 innings and surrendered 5 hits and 2 walks.
