Thunder Pick Up 3-1 Win Over Dallas
Tampa Bay took on Dallas in front of a lively crowd.

In a low-scoring contest between the Tampa Bay Thunder and the Dallas Texans, John Hunter, who is tied for 8th in the PBC with a 9.4 K/9 rate, proved to be the difference. The Tampa Bay right-hander earned props for his performance in the 3-1 Thunder win. Hunter, the winner, moves to 5-3. He threw 6.1 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 3 and giving up 4 walks. Ron Ingram earned the save for Tampa Bay, his 4th of the year.

The Thunder got a big at-bat from right fielder George Pickens. For the game, Pickens went 1 for 4 with a double. In the top of the fourth, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a run-scoring double. His 6th double of the season gave Tampa Bay a 1-0 lead.

"Every play was important. Every out was important," said Thunder manager Dick Granade.

Tampa Bay, at 34-12, is 6 games up in the Atlantic Division.
