| Twisters Squeeze By Houston, 6-5 | The Oklahoma City Twisters, with some walk-off drama, delighted their fans at Wranglers Ballpark.
The 6-5 Oklahoma City win over Houston was due in large part to Rodrigo Ortiz. The Twisters second baseman hit 2 home runs, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. Vinny Villanueva notched the win in relief. The left-hander allowed no runs on 3 hits in 4.1 innings. His record now sits at 1-1.
Justin Porter was the walk-off hero for Oklahoma City. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Twisters left fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.
"It's great to get the crowd pumped up," Porter said.
The Twisters have now won 4 straight.
