Thunderbirds Earn 6-5 Win Versus Cincinnati
Both teams had their chances, but the Phoenix Thunderbirds eventually prevailed.

The Phoenix Thunderbirds besoiled an otherwise fine performance by Cincinnati left fielder Matt Lawson by beating the Twins, 6-5, at Legednary Park. Lawson went 2-3 with a home run. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Phoenix reliever John Intriago, who finished 3rd in the WC in saves with 36 in 2071, was credited with the win. His record goes to 5-1. Jaime Zuniga took the loss for Cincinnati.

First Baseman Joaquin Yanqui made an impact for Phoenix, when he swatted a 2-run double off Craig Kruppenbacher in the bottom of the fourth. For the contest, Yanqui went 1 for 2 with a double and 2 walks, while adding 2 RBI.

"It doesn't matter if you're 10 games over .500 or 10 games under, it feels good to win," Yanqui told the Phoenix Observer.

The second-place Thunderbirds have won 6 straight games.
