Aquas Take Nail-Biter Over Destroyers
Houston starter Ricky Zika pitched well against the San Diego Destroyers at Tesoro Stadium. The right-hander led his team to a win, 8-6, in 11 innings. Victor Wix snagged the win in relief. He goes to 6-4 on the season. Matt Kloser suffered the loss. Houston goes to 79-47. The win puts them 11 games up in their division.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the 11th. With one out, Zika hit a cutter from Matt Kloser for a 2-run home run. The Aquas, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"This place sure got loud," said Brandon Coroian, the Houston manager.
