The El Paso Chihuahuas beat the Albuquerque Isotopes 6-5 Saturday night on a game-ending single by Tirso Ornelas with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning. It was Ornelas' second walk-off hit this season, after his game-ending home run against Sugar Land on April 30.

Ornelas went 4-for-5 with a two-run home run in the bottom of the seventh to tie the game 5-5. The four hits set a new season high for Ornelas.
