Mission Hurler Duren Fans 18 in Texas League comeback
San Antonio righty Rinaid Duren came within two strikeouts of a league record by fanning 18 Beaumont Exporters, after returning from Seattle. He allowed three singles as Beaumont lost 1 to 0. Dallas' Red Marvis earned his 18th win with a 3 0 shutout of Fort Worth, and Tulsa's Jules Hudson struck out 14 Oklahoma City to set a club mark in a 4 2 victory. The series nears night action with matchups including Fort Worth at Dallas and San Antonio at Beaumont. An unearned run scored in the ninth provided the only tally for San Antonio, aided by a wild throw on a potential double play.
