Wranglers Rack Up 8-6 Win Versus Chicago
The 8-6 Dallas win over Chicago was due in large part to Duane Simmons. The Wranglers first baseman went 3-5 with a home run and a double, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. Charlie Sokol earned the win for Dallas. He lasted 6.2 innings, allowing 5 runs on 11 hits, while striking out 5. With the win, he raised his record to 8-7. Joaquin Hernandez picked up the save, his 1st.

With Dallas trailing 3-2 in the bottom of the second, Simmons hit a fastball from Kevin Edwards for a 2-run double. It was his 20th double of the season and put the Wranglers ahead, 4-3.

"Nervous? No," said Simmons. "It was my time to shine."

The win hiked the Dallas record to 61-49.
