Destroyers Handle Thunderbirds, Nab 8-2 Win
San Diego turned a good effort from starter Matt Rook into a win over the Phoenix Thunderbirds at Seaward Stadium. The Destroyers won the game, 8-2. Rook, now 11-6, was the winner. In 5.1 innings, he gave up 6 hits, while striking out 4, walking 1, and allowing 2 runs. San Diego has won 3 straight, while Phoenix has lost 3 in a row.

One pivotal at-bat came in the top of the fifth with one out. With the bases loaded and the Thunderbirds trailing 5-2, Matt Rook needed to make a quality pitch. He threw a 2-2 fastball to retire Billy Morf, who hit into a double play.
