A second win of the season for Ruthin edged them to within a point of leaping from the relegation zone.
Put into bat, the visitors chalked up 150-8 off 40 overs, Toby Unsworth top-scoring with 30, while for the hosts, Muhammad Ghufran claimed 3-26 and Phil Oddie 2-25.
Set a revised 126 off 31 overs because of rain, Marchwiel and Wrexham were bowled out for 120, Brandon Williams (21) the only batsman to make 20 or over, Jonny Clayton 2-18 and Charlie Russell 2-19 for the away side, who won by 5 runs and 11-4 on points.
Ian Granger’s vital knock of 46 proved key as Menai Bridge seconds triumphed in a contest reduced to 25 overs per side.
Invited to bat, the Anglesey hosts made a useful 154-6, Granger getting good support from Hari Williams (28) and skipper Andrew Wannop (20), George Matthias 2-25 and Ethan Roberts 2-27 for the Flintshire visitors.

Opener and skipper Charlie Croasdale led the way with 71 as second-place Brymbo seconds cut the gap on table-toppers Mynydd Isa and Maeshafn, who were not in action.
Choosing to bat after a correct prediction of the coin, the Steelmen set 173-8 off 40 in this Sunday encounter, evergreen Dafydd Timothy 2-21 off eight, Jeivishnu Prithiviraj 2-26 and Harry Nash 2-31 for the visitors, who were then kept down to 100-9 in response.

Bala will not forget their first victory since returning to Saturday cricket in a hurry.
After seven straight losses, the Lakesiders skittled out hosts Pwllheli seconds for a mere 19 and then eased to 22-1 to record a nine-wicket success.
Pwll’, who elected to bat, lasted just 13.2 overs, Bala’s Jack White snaring 3-1, Caio Jones 3-11 and Jason Jones 2-5.
