Dallas Downed, 7-3, by Cougars
The Chicago Cougars beat the Dallas Wranglers, 7-3, at Norris Stadium. Andy Babel, who led the CA in hits with 189 in 1971, starred for Chicago. He went 3 for 5 with 2 doubles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Augie Hicks snagged the win in relief. He goes to 2-0 on the season. Rick Edwards suffered the loss. The win has Chicago at 13-13.

The game was all tied up in the top of the ninth, until Babel delivered big-time for Chicago, stroking a dramatic run-scoring single off Rick Edwards. The game-changing hit put the Cougars on top, 4-3.

"Every time you put a 'W' on the board is always good," said Babel.
