Detroit Downed, 3-1, by Wranglers
Dallas Wranglers starter Charlie Sokol hurled his team past the Detroit Wolverines, 3-1. Frank Dunn was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 28 of 31 save opportunities. The second-place Wranglers have won 6 straight games.

Mike Weatherby went 1 for 3 with a walk for Dallas. The 25-year old shortstop had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring walk off Jim Bryant. It was his 32nd walk of the season.

"We faced good pitching and still got it done," said Weatherby.
