Thunderbirds Win 4-3 Nail-Biter Versus Vikings
The Phoenix Thunderbirds picked up a win at Legednary Park, downing the Minneapolis Vikings, 4-3, in 11 innings. On the mound for Phoenix was right-hander Ernesto Alvarez, who played a pivotal role in the win. With this game in the books, Phoenix is 32-41, Minneapolis 45-29.

The decisive blow was delivered by Jason Taylor in the bottom of the 11th when he hit a run-scoring double off 23-year old right-handed pitcher Jaime Luther to win the game for Phoenix. The home crowd went nuts.

"This was a tremendous character win for our team," said Phoenix manager Joe Busch.
