Dallas Slaps 5-2 Loss on Houston
Steve Walp powered the Dallas Wranglers to a win over the Houston Drillers. The final score was 5-2. The Dallas right fielder, who is tied for 5th in the ABL in RBI with 41, was a force to be reckoned with. He banged out 2 extra-base hits, including 1 home run and 1 double. Frank Dunn notched his 10th save in 12 chances. Houston has now lost 4 in a row.

With Dallas leading 1-0 in the bottom of the third, Walp hit a fastball from Angel Colon for a grand slam home run. It was his 11th home run of the season and put the Wranglers ahead, 5-0.

"The vibe's good," said Dallas manager William Albrecht. "We've got to keep it going."
