Wranglers Take Tight Tilt, 4-3
The Dallas Wranglers overcame a fine performance by Houston second baseman Manny Riojas to defeat the Drillers, 4-3, at Sam Houston Field. Riojas was 4 for 4 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. The Wranglers bumped their record to 72-33 with this latest triumph.

Lanny Johnson, the ten-time All-Star , had a direct impact on the outcome. Johnson contributed a solo home run in the top of the sixth inning to put Dallas up, 4-3.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Johnson told the Dallas Citizen.
