Thunder Wolves Knock Off Black Aces, 8-5
Despite a great performance by Santa Ana right fielder Clark Ulery, the Tacoma Thunder Wolves defeated the Black Aces by the score of 8-5 at Santa Ana Stadium. Ulery was 2-3 with a home run and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Picking up his 2nd save was 20-year old right-handed pitcher Arhippa Hynninen. The second-place Black Aces have lost 4 straight games.

Tacoma relied on the hitting of Jeff McDaniel to pick up the win. The designated hitter ripped a 2-run triple in the top of the first inning to put the Thunder Wolves on top, 2-0. For the game, McDaniel had 1 triple and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Winning is hard sometimes," said Thunder Wolves manager Alfonso Estrada. "This one was nice to get."
