RockHounds Dump Hooks, 7-5
Midland picked up a win at Whataburger Field, toppling the Corpus Christi Hooks, 7-5. Pitcher Christopher Cruz was one of the reasons the RockHounds triumphed. Cecil Black finished the game for Midland and earned his 29th save. After today's action, Midland sits at 59-50, while Corpus Christi falls to 54-55.

Midland used the bat of Jordan Lawlar to capture the win. The second baseman jacked a 3-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the RockHounds ahead, 4-1. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a dandy.

"We'll put that win in the can," said Lawlar, "and go after the next one."
