Joe Adams, who finished 3rd in the WC in home runs with 34 last year, led Tucson to a triumph over Phoenix. The final score was 11-7. The catcher went 3 for 5, falling a triple shy of the cycle. He scored 1 run and added 3 RBI. The second-place Toros are now 80-74, the Thunderbirds 87-67.

Tucson took the lead, 11-6, on Max Speed's 20th home run of the season. The 3-run home run came off Phoenix pitcher Armando Montoya in the bottom of the seventh.

"If we play like this, we can win a lot of games," Adams told the Tucson Today.
