Gangsters Take Down Scorpions, 3-2
Chicago turned a fine outing from starter Sam Palacios into a victory over the Syracuse Scorpions at Scorpion Stadium. The final score was 3-2. Keith Kramer picked up the win in relief. His record improves to 1-2. Ken Allbaugh suffered the loss. Chris Zich recorded his 1st save for Chicago.

Chicago used a timely hit from Jon Fritz to get the win. The second baseman stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the 11th inning to put the Gangsters ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"I just tried to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Fritz.

The Gangsters with just their 7th win in 24 games, have played uninspired baseball so far.
