Minneapolis Earns 4-3 Win
The Minneapolis Vikings overcame a pretty good performance by Phoenix left fielder Billy Morf, beating the Thunderbirds, 4-3, at Legednary Park. Morf went 2 for 2 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. The Vikings bumped their record to 79-55 with this win.

Travis Turton came through with a big-time hit for Minneapolis. The right fielder smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to give his team the lead, 4-3. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

Turton said his team "played with focus and determination."
