Thunderbirds Rally For Late Win Over Fighting Dachshunds
The Hamilton Thunderbirds downed the Ellenburg Fighting Dachshunds, 8-5, at Dog Park in Ellenburg. The Thunderbirds were led by Austin Kirkpatrick. He went 1 for 1 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 3. The winner was George Taylor, who threw 112 pitches over 8 innings. The right-hander was charged with 5 runs on 5 hits. The save was credited to Gary Dillon, his 1st.

Hamilton used the clutch hitting of Tony Cordero to capture the win. The pinch hitter drilled a 3-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Thunderbirds ahead, 8-5. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a big one.

"We take it day by day here," said Kirkpatrick, "and today was a good one for us."

Hamilton has now won 3 in a row.
