EL PASO, TX - Cavan Biggio extended his RBI streak, but the Sugar Land Space Cowboys (15-6, 47-48) fell to the El Paso Chihuahuas (7-13, 42-53), 4-3, on a walk-off single from Bryce Johnson in the bottom of the ninth on Sunday night at Southwest University Park.

RHP Christian Roa threw a scoreless seventh, and RHP Miguel Ullola worked a scoreless eighth with one strikeout, extending his scoreless streak to 11 consecutive appearances.

El Paso connected on back-to-back singles before Johnson lined a walk-off single to center, handing the Chihuahuas the series finale.
