Adam Richards was instrumental in his team's 8-7 triumph over the San Francisco Pioneers. The first baseman was 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 6 RBI and scoring once for the Phoenix Firebirds. The winner was Ernie Kirkham in relief. His record improves to 3-1. Brandon Cobb took the loss. Phoenix now has a record of 44-32 with the win.

Richards contributed a big hit, a grand slam home run, for Phoenix in the top of the eighth. With his team trailing 7-4, Richards took a slider from Brandon Cobb and stroked the home run to right. His 12th home run of the season allowed the Firebirds to leap in front, 8-7.

"If you want to be considered a good team, these are the kind of games you have to win," said Phoenix manager David Fields.
