Chicago Upended, 8-5, by Fountain Hills
In the 8-5 Fountain Hills win over Chicago, the impact of David McGowan was substantial. McGowan was 3 for 4 with a triple, a double, and a walk. He drove in 4 runs. Salvatore Barajas earned the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 3.1 innings. His record is now 1-0. The 23ers are now 38-52, while the Gangsters fall to 32-58.

The game turned with two out in the bottom of the fourth. That's when McGowan hit a bases-clearing triple off Brian Hammond. It propelled the 23ers into the lead, 8-5.

"I know we have our doubters," said Chicago manager Antonio Valdez. "But I still have high hopes for this team."
