The Thunderbirds got their first-ever win over the Sunbirds with another excellent start by Mark Hardy. Hardy went 8+ innings, scattered ten hits, struck out 11.
The Sunbirds opened the scoring with an RBI double in the top of the fifth by Blaine Taylor. The Birds answered with four runs in the bottom of the fith, on RBI by Keaton Briscoe, Greg Densem, Sean Pisarski, and Sammie Starr. DH Nic Lendvoy hit an RBI single in the seventh, and Densem got another RBI in the eighth.
Hardy started the ninth inning, but gave up a single, followed by a two-run home run by 2B Andrew Douglas. Shawn Hetherington came in, got an out on a popup, and walked a batter. He then struck out the next two batters to end the game.
Kelyn Schellenberg, who got a win against the Birds in February, went the distance, allowed ten hits. Schellenberg pitched six innings against Ohio Dominican earlier in the day.
