Hooks Hits 2 home runs in Colts Win
The Indianapolis Colts defeated the New England Patriots, 7-5, in part because of left fielder Brian Hooks. Hooks belted 2 home runs. He scored 3 times and drove in 2 for the Colts. Indianapolis pitcher Jesse LaCount got the win, upping his record to 4-2. Dave Hawley got the loss. The Colts have an impressive 22-14 record.

Indianapolis took a 7-3 lead on Ethan Martin's 4th double of the season. The 2-run double, which Martin hit in the bottom of the seventh, left New England pitcher Ken Shanks visibly frustrated.

"It was a solid team effort," said Hooks after the game.
