Dallas Wins, 1-0, Over Drillers
The Dallas Wranglers did just enough to sneak past the Houston Drillers, 1-0, at Bluff Park. Dallas pitcher Barry Gilmore, in particular, had a standout performance. Dallas has now won 5 games in a row.

Dallas got a knockout punch from Terry Moore. The pinch hitter hammered a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"Nice to keep our winning streak intact," said Moore.
