Harlingen, TX - The Edinburg Coyotes (28-33) completed the four-game sweep of the Harlingen WhiteWings (17-43) with a 4-2 victory tonight at Harlingen Field.

The WhiteWings are losers of eight-straight while the Coyotes are winners of four-straight.

The Coyotes got on the board against Todd Lutz (2-4) in the second. Argelis Nunez led off with an infield single and Eric Gonzalez followed with a two-run home run. One out later, Mayobanex Santana reached on an error and Amado German singled. One out after that, Angelo Fermin hit an RBI-single to make it 3-0.

Trey Hendricks got one back in the bottom of the inning with his first WhiteWings home run, a solo-shot against Miguel Martinez (5-3).

In the fourth, Santana hit a two-out triple and scored on an infield single by German to make it 4-1.

That would be it against Lutz, who pitched eight innings, scattering nine hits, one walk and four strikeouts. From the fifth inning through the eighth, Lutz faced the minimum 12 batters, issuing just a walk but getting a double play to erase that.

In the sixth, Joel Gonzalez hit a one-out single and Hendricks followed with a double to make it 4-2.

Luke Prihoda pitched a scoreless ninth for his fourth save.

The WhiteWings welcome the Amarillo Dillas to Harlingen Field for the final time this season tomorrow night at 7:05. Left-hander Jorge Lugo (3-3) will face right-hander Taylor Allen (4-6).
