Preachers Hang 9-8 Loss on Horizons
Martín Corral added some punch to the Abilene offense, helping them outmuscle the Amarillo Horizons, 9-8. In the game, Corral, who led the WTXA in RBI with 76 last year, went 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2. Bob Byford came out of the bullpen to earn the win. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.1 innings. His record now stands at 1-0. At 25-16, the Preachers are currently second in the Association of Western Texas Abilene Circuit.

The most crucial at-bat for Abilene came in the top of the ninth inning. That's when Corral stroked a 2-1 sinker to center for a run-scoring single, putting Abilene up, 9-8.

Corral told a Abilene Chronicle reporter that he was "very satisfied" with the win.
