Another convincing win against the Masons puts the Thunderbirds in sole possession of the American Lea- wait what do you mean we're still tied for first? What's Chicago doing here with us? Did they get the Cyclones' golden horseshoe? Well, anyway, the Thunderbirds go back on the road, this time heading to the land of blues, BBQ, and a giant pyramid to face the Memphis Kings. After tying for the most points last week, 2B/3B Max Muncy decided that he really wanted to smash the ball, hitting 5 home runs on 7 hits while driving in 7 runners and nabbing a bag along the way. We will be wearing our standard sand roads in hopes of extending our winning streak to 4. #Thunderstruck

The Team of the Week has the anomaly of not having a repeat member for the first time this season, aside from week 1 for obvious reasons. Nine teams were represented this week, with Oklahoma City leading the way with three members on the team (Isaac Parades, Martin Perez, and Peter Strzelecki).

Another week, another win for the Thunderbirds to bring their record to 4-0. Our pitching was the real hero this week, with ace Sonny Gray leading the way in a already stellar season with 2 starts this week, fanning 15 and allowing only a single earned run in those 2 starts. We will head back home to Gila River Park for our toughest matchup yet, facing the undefeated Chicago Pros in a battle for first place in the American League. It will be a tough contest against the upstart team, but we know it will sure be an entertaining series for our fans. Highlighted this week for this monumental series will be the ever-popular Monument Valley.

Wait, what's this?

The New York Blackbirds announce today that for their rematch against the Atoms, they will wear their usual black pin striped home set.  

Only one player is a repeat member of the Team of the Week this week, Catcher Sean Murphy!
