Talk about an impressive comeback.  The Fisher Cats scored five runs in the top of the ninth to send the game into extra frames after being down 5-0 and then David Smith doubled home Ryan Patterson in the top of the tenth for the winning run.  Robinzon Diaz had a big three run homer in that ninth inning and he finished the game three for six.

Matt Roney picked up the win and he improved to 2-1 on the season.  He pitched a shutout ninth but it was an important inning.

The Chiefs took it to the Yankees today and won both ends of a doubleheader. In they first game, Kevin Barker had three hits and four RBIs and Curtis Thigpen had two hits, three runs and three RBIs in the 8-2 win.  Josh Banks picked up the win with a seven inning complete game.  He gave up two runs on eight hits with two strikeouts.

The second game was closer but the end result was the same.  Thigpen had the game winner with a walk off two run homer.  Matt Roney picked up the win with 2 1/3 innings of shutout relief.  He struck out four.
