Wranglers Rally to Nose Past Chicago
No one was more impactful than Mike Weatherby in the 5-4 Dallas win over Chicago. Weatherby went 3 for 5 with 3 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. The triumph puts Dallas at 59-58 for the season.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With two out, Weatherby hit a cutter from Angel Villatoro for a run-scoring single. The Wranglers, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

Weatherby told a Dallas Daily News reporter that he was "satisfied" with the win.
