6 Straight Wins for Wranglers
The Dallas Wranglers topped the Atlanta Generals, 8-1, at Bluff Park. Dallas catcher Luis Banda was a spark plug for the offense. He went 1-2 with a home run and 2 walks, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3. Picking up the win was Ed Payne. He went 8 innings, allowing 1 run on 7 hits. The left--hander struck out 2 and walked 2. The Wranglers have a winning streak of 6 games.

Ed Payne threw 8.0 innings of 7-hit ball for Dallas. The 24-year old left-handed pitcher had a key at-bat in the bottom of the second. With two out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he broke a 1-1 tie with a 2-run single off George Palmer. It was his 14th hit of the season.

"We didn't put up much resistance," said losing manager Philipe Yazzie.
