Thunderbirds Reel-In 5-4 Win Over Stars
Phoenix Thunderbirds starter John Hersey found his groove in his team's 5-4 win over the Los Angeles Stars. Jimmy Hsia was credited with the save for Phoenix, his 23rd of the season. Phoenix, at 76-62, sits in second place in the Western Conference Brian Boots Division.

Phoenix used a clutch at-bat from Billy Morf to capture the win. The left fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Thunderbirds ahead, 4-2. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"John kept them off-balance, threw a great game for us," said Thunderbirds manager Joe Busch.
