Rooks Schools New Orleans in 5-1 Seattle Triumph
Jim Rooks never let New Orleans get something going. The Seattle right-hander commanded his curveball in pitching the Seahawks to a 5-1 win. The last-place Seahawks have a record of 19-24.

Rooks was the winning pitcher. He raised his season record to 1-7. In 8 innings of work, Rooks gave up 1 run on 2 hits, while striking out 7. The Saints were never able to generate much offense.

"Main thing is I want the team to win," Rooks told a reporter after the game. "Just have to go out there, take care of my job, and give my team a chance to win."
