Wranglers Victors, 9-4, at Chicago
Behind the hitting of Chuck Armstrong, the Dallas Wranglers stopped the Chicago Cougars, 9-4. Armstrong was 2 for 4 with a triple, a double, and a walk. He scored 3 times for the Wranglers. Butch Abrams got credit for the win, improving to 9-6. He allowed 4 runs on 13 hits in 8 innings. The 9th-place Wranglers hiked their record to 37-51.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Ed Hester? The 32-year old shortstop Hester stroked a 2-run single in the top of the seventh inning to put Dallas up, 6-4. For the game, he was 2 for 5, including 1 double and 1 single.

"We had some nice at-bats at the right time," said Wranglers manager Tom Aiello.
