Karros Helps Black Aces Win, 15-7, with Pair of Homers
Spirited fans greeted the New York Yankees for their clash with the Houston Black Aces.

Led by Eric Karros, the Houston Black Aces defeated the New York Yankees, 15-7. Karros went 3 for 4 with 2 home runs and a walk, while scoring 3 times and driving in 4 for the Black Aces. With the win, Houston pushed its record to 45-28.

It could have been a different outcome for Houston, had it not been for Kirby Puckett, the top prospect . Puckett contributed a grand slam home run in the top of the sixth inning to put Houston up, 7-6.

"Winning is contagious," said Karros. "We're looking forward to the next game."
