23ers Stay Hot With 6-3 Win
Fountain Hills pitcher Curtis Gring had a large part in his team beating the New York Nightmare, 6-3. The right-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. Wade McGonigle recorded the save for Fountain Hills, his 4th of the season. Fountain Hills, now 13-2, has played well in the early going.

The Nightmare had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the 23ers going into the bottom of the fourth inning. That changed quickly when the former first round draft pick Josh Mahan came to the plate. Mahan hit a run-scoring double on a 1-1 sinker from New York hurler Mario Ruiz. It was Mahan's 2nd double of the year.

"Curtis was really on it," said Fountain Hills manager Efren Nieman. "He's got a feel for playing with the hitter front-to-back, side-to-side."
