Suns Handle Mavericks, Grab 6-5 Win
Arizona beat Houston at Desert Crown Park, eking out a 6-5 win. The win was due in large part to left fielder Assi Cukierman. He went 3 for 3 with 3 singles and a walk, while scoring 2 times. Omar Thomas finished the game for Arizona and earned his 6th save. The Suns improved to 15-31.

Arizona went up, 6-5, on Mandel Yahnel's 1st home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Yahnel hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Houston pitcher Steve Yates shaking his head.

"It's good to win," Yahnel told the Arizona Daily. "I like to have fun doing it."
