Thunder Go Down to Defeat, 5-4
The 5-4 Hartford win over Trenton was due in large part to Niko Von Meyer. The Yard Goats shortstop was 3 for 4 with a double and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs. Jonas Bruinink picked up the win, improving his season record to 7-4. He struck out 4 in 6 innings. Bobby Filipkowski closed out the game, earning his 12th save.

Roberto Jimenez dealt the Thunder a blow in the bottom of the second. Batting with a runner on 3rd and Hartford leading 4-0, Jimenez, who is tied for 6th in the EL with a .493 slugging percentage, hit a 1-0 sinker for a run-scoring single.

Von Meyer told reporters after the game: "All's well that ends well."

The first-place Yard Goats are 83-48.
