Wranglers Sunk by Northmen
John Hammit had a good game, but he could not keep the Dallas Wranglers from falling, 7-5, to the Twin Cities Northmen at Twin Cities Stadium. The Dallas third baseman was 3-5 with a home run and 2 doubles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 in the loss. Twin Cities is 46-53 and Dallas, with the loss, 50-50.

Mountainaire, Arizona-born Rick Giardina came through in the clutch. In the bottom of the seventh, with runners on 2nd and 3rd and the Northmen trailing 4-3, he hit a 2-run single to right to put Twin Cities on top.

"In baseball, you have your ups and downs," said Dallas manager William Albrecht. "You just try to stay level-headed the whole time."
