Late Rally by Wranglers Locks Up 3-1 Win
The Dallas Wranglers, behind a great outing from Steve Coomes, who is a three-time All-Star, defeated the Detroit Wolverines, 3-1, at Wolverine Field. In 7 innings, Coomes surrendered 3 hits, while striking out 1 and walking 1. He allowed 1 run. The save was credited to Art Stager, his 3rd.

Toby Golf provided a timely hit. The Dallas second baseman delivered a run-scoring triple in the top of the eighth inning to put the Wranglers on top, 2-1. It was his only hit in the game, but he made it count.

"I'm just trying to make sure I'm focused for each and every pitch," said Coomes.

Their 22-23 record puts the Wranglers 4th in the American Baseball League Western Division.
