Bulls Flatten Thunderbirds, 11-4
The Houston Bulls beat the Seattle Thunderbirds, 11-4, at Thunderbird Park. The Bulls got a fine performance from catcher Dave Doolittle, who was 2 for 4 with a double and 2 walks, while scoring 3 times. The Great Western League-leading Bulls are 40-16.

Ed Whetzel dealt the Thunderbirds a blow in the top of the second. Batting with the bases loaded and Houston trailing 1-0, Whetzel, who is tied for 4th in the GWL with a 7 complete games, hit a first pitch slider for a 2-run single.

"It's a mindset," said Whetzel. "Just trying to do your job, trying to be consistent."
