The McAllen Thunder (16-28) and the Edinburg Roadrunners (26-18) volleyed the lead five times on Sunday, but the McAllen Thunder came out on top for a 5-4 win on Sunday at Edinburg Stadium.
The Edinburg Roadrunners had no answer for Kurt Houck, who kept runners off the basepaths in his appearance. The Edinburg Roadrunners managed just one hit off of Houck, who allowed no earned runs, walked none and struck out three during his 1 2/3 innings of work.
Rusty Jones ended up on the wrong side of the pitching decision, charged with his first loss of the year. He lasted just two innings, walked one, struck out three, and allowed one run.
