Titans Pocket 6-4 Win Against Boston
The Houston Titans finished off the Boston Minutemen, 6-4. Much of the credit belonged to designated hitter Marcell Ozuna. Ozuna went 2-4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for the Titans. Griffin Jax, now 2-1, was credited with the win in 1.2 innings of relief. He allowed 1 run on 1 hit, while striking out 3 and walking 1. The loss makes Boston 43-52.

With Houston leading 2-1 in the top of the fifth, Ozuna hit a fastball from Hayden Birdsong for a 2-run home run. It was his 24th home run of the season and put the Titans ahead, 4-1.

"Every time I go up there, I try and hit a ball hard," said Ozuna.
