Kau Swings Thunderbirds to 8-3 Win
The Phoenix Thunderbirds defeated the Kansas City Athletics, 8-3. Center Fielder Du Kau deserved a large share of the credit. Kau was 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 3 for the Thunderbirds. The Thunderbirds, now 79-62, have won 4 in a row.

Billy Morf drew 2 walks for Phoenix. The seven-time All-Star had a key at-bat in the top of the fifth. With two out and the bases loaded, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring walk off Jonathan Zelina. It was his 88th walk of the season.

"I was able to barrel up some pitches," said Kau.
