Willingham Slugs Chiefs to 7-3 Win
The 7-3 Mescalero win over Corpus Christi was due largely to Damian Willingham. The Chiefs designated hitter was 3 for 4 with 2 home runs and a walk, while scoring 3 and driving in 2. The Mescalero win streak is now 3 games.

Travis Letner, who is tied for 8th in the E-AA in triples with 1, contributed to the Mescalero win with a solo home run in the top of the third. For the game, the right fielder had 2 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 3 RBI.

"We cashed in when we had the chance," said Mescalero manager Hunter Santiago.
