This game was close for four innings, but the Thunderbirds put it away with five runs in the fifth inning, then added ten more runs in the sixth. The Bulldogs had used all their starters in a three-game series over the weekend.
Every Thunderbird who played got a hit except CF Christian Jolley, who entered the game as a pinch-hitter in the top of the ninth, and 2B Alex White, who still reached base on errors twice, and got an RBI. CF Blake Carruthers had the biggest day; he was 3-4 before being replaced by Jolley, hit a three-run home run, a double, had four RBI, a stolen base, and drew two walks.
Starter Danny Britton-Foster got the win. He allowed seven hits in five innings, but struck out seven. Mark Hardy was very sharp in pitching two relief innings; he retired all six batters he faced, and struck out three of them. Miles Verweel went the rest of the way, allowed a run on two hits, but struck out four.
