The Chicago Docs were behind most of the game against the Houston Hoots. But Buster Posey’s grand slam was part of a 5-run inning that capped an amazing comeback. A long rain delay ended the night for Cy Young and Jerry Koosman. Koosman had given up 4 runs, as Houston took a 4-0 lead after the delay. It seemed that every time Chicago edged closer, Houston would pull away again. Chicago scored two runs against Warren Spahn in the 4th, but Houston got them right back against Kevin Brown in the 5th. The teams traded runs over the next few innings before Oscar Charleston hit a 2-run homer off Curt Schilling in the 8th, giving Houston a 9-5 lead. That’s when Jesse Haines allowed a double to Barry Bonds, a single to Troy Tulowitzki, and a walk to Keith Hernandez. Posey followed with a monster drive that tied the game. Fergie Jenkins tried to stop the comeback, but Sammy Sosa singled in the go-ahead run. Tug McGraw pitched a perfect 9th against a demoralized Hoots team to pick up the save. Sosa finished 4 for 5 with 4 RBI. Ted Simmons was 4 for 5 with 3 RBI for the Hoots. Houston’s loss drops them back into a tie for 1st place with Los Angeles.
