With the victory, the Gladiators upped their record to 47-45.

With two out in the top of the third, Jon Wagner put Phoenix in front, 3-0, with a 2-run single. The Gladiators went on to win the ballgame.

"We're all about heart and hustle on this team. That's what wins ballgames," Franz told the Phoenix Bulletin.
