Thunderbirds Take Down Aztecs, 11-10
In a high-scoring contest between El Paso and Mexico City, first baseman Bahupatu Ranjitsinhji was a difference-maker. Ranjitsinhji, who led the ABL in slugging percentage with .746 in 2145, distinguished himself in the 11-10 El Paso win. He was 3-5 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4. The win belongs to Qian-fu Luo in relief. His record improves to 1-0. John Flowers took the loss for Mexico City. The Thunderbirds, at 27-9, have now won 5 straight.

António Ribadeneira went 2-4 with 2 singles and 2 walks, while adding 2 RBI for El Paso. The 25-year old shortstop had a key at-bat in the top of the 11th. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 10-10 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off John Flowers. It was his 33rd RBI of the season.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Ranjitsinhji told the El Paso Daily.
