Yardmen Stick Layabouts with 5-4 Loss
The Wichita Falls Yardmen topped the Lubbock Layabouts, 5-4, at Lubbock Grounds. Wichita Falls left fielder Humberto Fujii was a spark plug for the offense. He was 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. The third-place Yardmen improved to 64-68.

The Layabouts had been locked in a 4-4 tie with the Yardmen going into the top of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 24-year old second baseman Esteban Rueda came to the plate. Rueda hit a solo home run on a 1-1 slider from Lubbock hurler Luis Valentín. It was Rueda's 8th home run of the year.

"It was a good effort all around," said Rueda.
