Gessner Rips 2 Home Runs in 9-1 Muskies Triumph
The Glendale Muskies pinned a convincing loss on the Portland Mad Ants, 9-1, at Field of the Muskies. Tom Gessner was a main factor in the win. He slugged 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice for Glendale. Mike Hammond got credit for the win, improving to 3-0. He allowed no runs on 4 hits in 7 innings. At 73-65, Glendale is in third place in the Stars Conference West Division.

Chris Stanifer had a big 3-run home run for the Muskies in the bottom of the third inning. With Glendale leading 1-0 and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he sized up a curveball from 28-year old right-handed pitcher Pete Mead and punished it. The result was his 20th home run of the season, which put the Muskies on top, 4-0.

"Every time I go up there, I try and hit a ball hard," said Gessner.
