Kansas City Grabs 11-9 Road Win
The Kansas City Jacks withstood a fine game by Houston catcher Johnny Simmons at Hogg Field, to upend the Lone Stars, 11-9. Simmons went 3 for 5 with a double and 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Ernesto Leal, the winning pitcher, improved to 5-4. He pitched 5.1 innings, giving up 7 hits and 7 runs, while striking out 2 and walking 3. The win elevated the Jacks to 88-65.

Kansas City used the hitting of Mike Ruíz to pick up the win. The right fielder clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Jacks on top, 2-0. For the game, Ruíz had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"It's always a heck of a lot easier to get to sleep after a win," Ruíz told the Kansas City Bulletin. "I know I'll rest easy tonight."
