Firebirds Slap 6-4 Loss on Chicago
The performance of Dansby Swanson proved critical in helping Phoenix beat Chicago, 6-4. The Firebirds shortstop was 2 for 4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 runs. The win puts Phoenix at 56-38 this season.

Phoenix used the timely hitting of Ke'byran Hayes to seize the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Firebirds on top, 6-4. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Hayes. "And not try to do too much."
