Dallas Tags New Orleans with 7-6 Defeat
New Orleans catcher Jason McGuire had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 7-6, to Dallas at Louisiana Superdome. McGuire went 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 2 times. The win puts Dallas at 11-10.

Dallas shortstop Jason Wiertel contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the fifth. With two down, he hit a fastball to center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 26th hit of the season and put the Cowboys ahead, 6-5.

"It wasn't our best performance," said Wiertel, "but a win in this league is nothing to sniff at."
