Cougars Trip Wranglers, 6-4, in Extra Innings
Fans brought energy and enthusiasm to the Dallas Wranglers home opener. Pete Rosenbaum started for the home team against Roger Alford for the Chicago Cougars. The Wranglers were unable to reward the home crowd with a win. The final score was 6-4, Chicago. Roger Alford, though, was impressive.

Chicago used a timely hit from Bill Grimm to get the win. The pinch hitter stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the 12th inning to put the Cougars ahead, 5-4. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it made an impact.

"There's no quit in this team," said Cougars manager Pug Bryan.
