Houston Defeated By Thunder, 10-5
The Tampa Bay Thunder overcame a pretty good performance by Houston left fielder Jonathan Thornton, beating the Mavericks, 10-5, at The Thunder Bowl. Thornton was 2-3 with a home run, a walk, and was hit by a pitch. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Picking up the win was Steve Aubin. He went 5 innings, allowing 3 runs on 5 hits. The right--hander struck out 7 and walked 1. At 37-21, the Thunder have a slim two-game lead in the Eastern Circuit.

Jhong-shun Xú had a big grand slam home run for the Thunder in the bottom of the second inning. With Tampa Bay trailing 2-0 and the bases loaded, he sized up a sinker from Nate Kelley, who is a three-time All-Star, and punished it. The result was his 6th home run of the season, which put the Thunder on top, 4-2.

"We came in and got the job done. That's what it's all about in this business," said Xú.
