Ortiz Leads Twisters to 8-4 Win Over Rangers
The Oklahoma City Twisters defeated the Houston Rangers, 8-4. Doing his part was second baseman Rodrigo Ortiz, who was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 5. Picking up the win was Raul Lopez. He went 8.2 innings, allowing 2 runs on 4 hits. The right--hander struck out 7 and walked 1. Chad Strickland, who led the UL in saves with 29 in 2043, nailed down the save.

With Oklahoma City leading 1-0 in the top of the fourth, Ortiz hit a slider from Omar Chavez for a grand slam home run. It was his 10th home run of the season and put the Twisters ahead, 5-0.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Ortiz said.

Oklahoma City leads the United Central by 7 games.
