Thunder Eke Out 3-2 Win Versus Atlanta
Steve Yates pitched well, but the Atlanta Pilots still lost the game, falling, 3-2, to the Tampa Bay Thunder at The Hangar. The winner was Xing-hua Tse, who threw 98 pitches over 6 innings. The left-hander was charged with 1 run on 8 hits. Damani Peterson nailed down his 7th save.

Tampa Bay used a clutch at-bat from Tom Higgins to capture the win. The first baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Thunder ahead, 2-1. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"We need better swings, better at-bats," said losing manager Richard Schermerhorn.

Tampa Bay is now 34-37, Atlanta 37-34.
