Wranglers Top Seagulls to Even Record
A good performance from first baseman Ron Somers helped the Dallas Wranglers defeat the San Francisco Seagulls, 7-2. Somers went 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for the Wranglers. Charlie Sokol, who went 7 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 2 runs on 7 hits, while walking 4 and striking out 4. His record now stands at 6-11. Frank Dunn got the save, his 5th in 8 chances.

With Dallas trailing 2-1 in the bottom of the fourth, Somers hit a sinker from Arturo Lopez for a 2-run home run. It was his 12th home run of the season and put the Wranglers ahead, 3-2.

"We came in and got the job done. That's what it's all about in this business," said Somers.

The win elevated the Wranglers to 66-66.
