Wranglers 4-0 Winners Over Detroit
Starting pitcher Art Stager was a major factor in the 4-0 Dallas Wranglers triumph over the Detroit Wolverines. Stager picked up the win for Dallas, going 7 innings. He gave up no runs on 7 hits. He now sports a record of 12-3. Dallas has won 3 straight, while Detroit has lost 3 in a row.

The outcome was still in doubt with two out in the top of the fourth inning, but Stager was able to pitch out of a jam. With runners on 1st and 2nd and Detroit trailing 1-0, Stager retired Larry Black, who flied out.
