Murillo Lifts Wranglers to 7-5 Triumph
The Newport News Wranglers saddled the Santa Barbara Super Troopers with a loss at Car Ramrod Park. The final score was 7-5. Vinny Murillo was 3 for 4, including 2 singles and 1 home run. The Newport News designated hitter scored 2 runs and drove in 3. Newport News reliever Jonathan Aubry picked up the win. Oscar Villasenor took the loss for Santa Barbara. At 65-56, Newport News is in second place in the Sub League 2 East Division.

Murillo had a game-changing home run in the top of the seventh. On a 2-0 fastball from Oscar Villasenor, he banged a 2-run home run to right, giving the Wranglers a 7-5 lead. It was the 7th home run of the year for Murillo.

"Good pitching stops good hitting," said Murillo. "And vice-versa."
