Thunderbirds Hammered by Martínez, Drop Game 3 to Aztecs
Riding the 2-hit performance of left fielder Héctor Martínez, the Mexico City Aztecs got a road win against the El Paso Thunderbirds, 12-7, in Game 3 of the Divisional Series. Martínez went 2 for 5 with a home run. He scored 2 runs and drove in 6 for the Aztecs, who now lead the best-of-7 series, 2 games to 1.

Martínez had an important at-bat with runners on 1st and 3rd in the top of the seventh, when he hit a 3-run home run. The Aztecs went on to win.

"The boys were really swinging the bats today," winning manager Square Drive said.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Thunderdome in El Paso.
