Bunchgrassers Spill Sun Kings, 6-2
Spokane Bunchgrassers starter Willard Nixon was in fine form against the El Paso Sun Kings at The Dudley Dome, leading his team to a win, 6-2. The triumph puts Spokane at 52-49 for the season.

It could have been a different outcome for Spokane, had it not been for Muddy Ruel, the 30-year old catcher . Ruel contributed a run-scoring walk in the top of the first inning to put Spokane up, 1-0.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Ruel told the Spokane Today. "It's as simple as that."
