Phoenix Thunderbirds (26-34) 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 3 9 1

Twins Win at Home, 9-3
Nick Phipps was a major factor in the 9-3 Cincinnati win over Phoenix. The Twins second baseman was 3-5 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Cincinnati starter Ryan Surette was credited with the win after throwing 110 pitches over 5 innings. His record now stands at 5-5. The win makes Cincinnati 31-31.

Alex Sierra had a big 2-run double for the Twins in the bottom of the third inning. With Cincinnati trailing 1-0 and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he got a sinker from 26-year old right-handed pitcher Hector Ortiz and swatted a double to center. It was his 8th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Twins ahead, 2-1.

"We were able to put some runs on the board," said Phipps after the game.
