Baltimore Bats Cold in 7-0 Loss
Baltimore had no answer for Phoenix Thunderbirds starter Eikki Hostikka, who flummoxed Kings hitters as the Thunderbirds cruised to victory, 7-0. The 4th-place Thunderbirds bumped their record to 18-24.

Phoenix used the hitting of Billy Buelna to pick up the win. The second baseman clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Thunderbirds on top, 3-0. For the game, Buelna had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

Said losing manager Brad Carpenter: "The at-bats, obviously, needed to be better."
