Starting pitcher Ernesto Valdéz pitched well enough to help the Idaho Falls Chukars beat the Niagara Falls Expos, 5-4. The 7th-place Expos dropped to 24-21.

The Chukars got a lift from designated hitter Melchor Palangan, who in the bottom of the sixth stroked a full count fastball to right for a run-scoring single. It was his 18th hit of the season and put the Chukars ahead, 5-0.

"Both teams played hard," said Idaho Falls manager Alan Hardy.
