Mavericks Fight for 4-3 Win
The Tampa Bay Thunder got a superb performance from pitcher Adam Bianco, but the Houston Mavericks still won the game, 4-3. Bianco threw 7.0 innings of 4-hit ball. Houston reliever Jayden Johnson picked up the win to move to 6-3. Chris Nunnally suffered the loss. With the win, the Mavericks have a record of 26-23.

Ramiro Fuentes came through with a big-time hit for Houston. The designated hitter smacked a solo home run in the top of the 12th inning to give his team the lead, 4-3. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"When you think about it," Fuentes said, "there's often a fine line between triumph and tragedy. One pitch, one swing of the bat can make all the difference."
