Birchfield Stars in 11-7 Sunchasers Win
The 11-7 Sunrise Manor win over Buckeye Local was due in large part to Chris Birchfield. The Sunchasers center fielder was 4-5 with a home run and 2 doubles, while scoring 3 and driving in 5. The winning pitcher was Asakichi Funaki. He's now 5-8. He went 7 innings, allowing 3 runs on 7 hits for the Sunchasers. The 'W' lifts Sunrise Manor's record to 36-54.

With Sunrise Manor leading 3-2 in the bottom of the second, Birchfield hit a fastball from Xiao-mei Wu for a 2-run double. It was his 8th double of the season and put the Sunchasers ahead, 5-2.

"I'm trying to keep it simple," said Birchfield. "Just do my job."
