Black Aces Earn 10-4 Win Versus Pittsburgh
Houston center fielder Kirby Puckett made his presence felt in the 10-4 Black Aces triumph over the Pittsburgh Ambassadors. Puckett went 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. So far, the 1999 season has been disappointing for Pittsburgh, now 12-17.

Houston third baseman Ossie Bluege contributed to the cause with a 2-run single in the bottom of the first. For the game, Bluege was 1 for 4. He drove in 2 runs.

"I was hoping to make good contact," said Bluege. "I wasn't trying to knock the snot out of it."
