Stevedores Handled by Wrexham, 5-4
The Wrexham Druids picked up a win at Wrexham Stadium, knocking off the Newport Stevedores, 5-4. Starting pitcher Henry Wilkin was a big reason why. Wilkin, now 11-7, was the winner. In 9 innings, he gave up 3 hits, while striking out 1, walking 2, and allowing 4 runs. Wrexham is now 40-20, 7 games up in the All-Team Circuit Undeb Pel-fas Cymru.

Absalón Ruiz dealt the Stevedores a blow in the bottom of the sixth. Batting with a runner on 2nd and Wrexham leading 4-1, Ruiz, who finished 4th in the GBBO in doubles with 29 in 1892, hit a 2-2 cutter for a run-scoring single.

"Our guys are never satisfied," said Wrexham manager Cecilio Solís.
