Wranglers Capture Close Win

Rick McStay was tagged with the loss. Dave Gilson closed the game out for Dallas, earning his 2nd save.

The Wranglers benefited from an error in the top of the first inning. Dallas was leading 1-0 when Jamie Robinson hit a run-scoring single that was misplayed. It put Dallas in front, 2-0.

Robinson called the win "a lesson in teamwork."

Dallas now sports a record of 31-33.
