San Angelo, Texas---The Colts continued their trend of falling behind in the first inning at home, as they spotted the Rio Grande Valley White Wings a 3-0 lead, but were able to come back and win 15-13 at Foster Field Friday night.
San Angelo scored six runs in its half of the first inning, including home runs from Cory Patton (6) and Daryl Jones (12). The White Wings scored two more in the third on a Gerardo Avila (1) two run blast.
