Wichita Falls Gets 8-7 Win
El Paso first baseman Delmar Cartagena had a terrific game, but it still wasn't enough to get his team a win. Cartagena was 2 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks, while scoring 2 and driving in 3, even as Wichita Falls beat the Finos, 8-7. Nick Merritt picked up the win, improving his season record to 1-0. He struck out 4 in 9 innings. With the win over El Paso, the Yardmen improved to 44-34.

Having an impact for Wichita Falls was Ernesto Medina. In the top of the seventh inning, the top prospect had a run-scoring walk to make the score 4-2, Yardmen.

"It's not about individual awards," Medina told a Wichita Falls Daily News reporter after the game. "It's about winning championships. That's what we play for."
