Fountain Hills took on Detroit in front of a lively crowd.

The Fountain Hills 23ers trumped the Detroit Giants, 5-1, at Fountain Park. Fountain Hills left fielder Joe Tibbs was terrific. He went 2 for 4 with a double. The 23ers raised their record to 47-54.

Jim Kaufman had a big run-scoring double for the 23ers in the bottom of the second inning. With Fountain Hills leading 1-0 and a runner on 1st, he got a sinker from 28-year old right-handed pitcher Beau Larson and swatted a double to right. It was his 4th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the 23ers ahead, 2-0.

Said losing manager Larry Voltaire: "It's very easy to sit in an ivory tower and critique the pitching, but the bottom line is we need to score runs."
