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.
