Brooks Neutralizes Thunderbirds
Slider Brooks was superb against Phoenix. The left-hander, who finished 2nd in the WC in ERA with 2.39 in 2074, had a fastball that was virtually unhittable at times. The result was a Vikings victory. The score was 2-0. Johnny Wickwire finished the game for Minneapolis and earned his 15th save. Phoenix has now lost 7 in a row.

Brooks's performance can only be described as masterful. He notched 10 strikeouts in 5.1 innings while allowing 1 hit. Brooks, who is tied for 5th in the WC in strikeouts with 192, goes to 7-11 on the year with 192 strikeouts.

"Slider is tough when he's hitting his spots," said Minneapolis manager Ace Cooan.
