Thunderbirds Dispose of Stars, 10-2
The Los Angeles Stars took it on the chin, losing, 10-2, to the El Paso Thunderbirds. Tien Dung Long, who finished 2nd in the ABL in extra base hits with 85 last year, pitched a strong game for El Paso. The winning pitcher was Long, now 10-10. He tossed 9 innings of 5-hit ball, while walking 3 and fanning 8. The Thunderbirds, at 58-49, sit in second place in the Americas Baseball League North American Division.

Tsing Liao had a big grand slam home run for the Thunderbirds in the bottom of the fifth inning. With El Paso leading 4-2 and the bases loaded, he sized up a changeup from 24-year old right-handed pitcher Driss Denis and punished it. The result was his 14th home run of the season, which put the Thunderbirds on top, 8-2.

"We can't expect to win," said Los Angeles manager Alex G, "with that kind of performance."
