Default Text String - Specific Characters

I've got a list of data in column "A" that looks like this:

A1 Red 26-57-98P Top Shelf
A2 Blue 3-18-46Q Top Shelf
A3 Green 46-9-38Z Top Shelf

etc....

from the text string, I would like to isolate only the numbers and dashes in
new cells in column "B" to look like this:

B1 26-57-98P
B2 3-18-46Q
B3 46-9-38Z

Is there a function to do that easily?

Thx
