El Paso Beats Mexico City, 4-2
The Mexico City Aztecs got a superb performance from pitcher Jin-u Kim, but the El Paso Thunderbirds still won the game, 4-2. Kim threw 5.2 innings allowing 1 run. Masashige Ota came out of the bullpen to earn the win. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2 innings. His record now stands at 2-1. The win puts the Thunderbirds at 36-39, while the Aztecs drop to 42-33.

El Paso went up, 3-2, on Tien Dung Long's 14th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Long hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Mexico City pitcher Harvey Yeandle shaking his head.

"It's nice to come out on top today," said Long.
