Matthews Hits 3 home runs in Thunder Win
Toronto right fielder John Matthews contributed significantly to his team's 16-7 win over the Colorado Billy Goats. Matthews, who is tied for 3rd in the PL in runs scored with 45, went 4 for 4 with 5 runs scored to lead the offensive attack for the Thunder. Mark Garland, the winner, goes to 1-0. He allowed 5 runs on 8 hits, with 1 walk and 6 strikeouts over 5.1 innings. The 4th-place Thunder have won 6 straight games.

In the bottom of the first inning, left fielder Sonny O'Mulrooney had a 2-run triple for Toronto. It was his 1st triple of the season and put the Thunder on top, 3-1.

"Hitting is contagious. And when you have a lineup that's going to throw out competitive at-bats one through nine, it makes you want to join in," said Matthews.
