Although Chicago capitalized on the pitching woes with nine runs in the ninth inning in the 17-7 win Sunday evening, the Cleburne Railroaders finished their homestand with a 4-2 series win over the Dogs.
At 17-11 through the first month of the season, the Roaders hold a 2-game lead over the Lake Country Dockhounds for the top spot in the East Division. After a travel day Monday, Cleburne begins a 3-game series with the defending champion Kane County Cougars Tuesday at 6:30 p.m.
