In front of a loud 7,080 fans, the Chihuahuas were able to hold on to defeat Albuquerque 4-2 in the first of the four-game home series.
Now, the hot Chihuahuas have won two in a row and six out of their last nine.
El Paso opened up the first, third and fourth innings with scores with Travis Jankowski leading the way for the team. He went 3-for-4 with an RBI and a run for the home club.
Similarly hot on his bats today, Ryan Schimpf had a solo home run, which is his third homer in the last four games.
