Down to Defeat Goes Chicago, 4-2
The El Paso Thunderbirds picked up a win at Thunderdome, taking down the Chicago Beefs, 4-2. Starting pitcher Jin-u Kim was a big reason why. With the loss, Chicago is 14-17.

António Ribadeneira had a big 3-run home run for the Thunderbirds in the bottom of the sixth inning. With El Paso leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a changeup from 22-year old right-handed pitcher Bob Singleton and punished it. The result was his 2nd home run of the season, which put the Thunderbirds on top, 4-0.

"Jin-u had good arm action, good stuff," said El Paso manager AP MP.
