Mesa Wins, 7-6, Over Bears
Led by Brian Sanders, the Mesa Razor Sharks downed the Traverse City Bears, 7-6. Sanders went 4-7 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 for the Razor Sharks. D.J. Attridge, now 7-0, was credited with the win in 1.2 innings of relief. He allowed no runs on no hits, while striking out 2 and walking 0. The Razor Sharks improved their record to 70-53 by beating Traverse City.

A defensive lapse proved costly in the contest. In the top of the 13th, with the game tied, Matt Flanders was at the plate when Mesa scored 1 on an error. The miscue enabled the Razor Sharks to go in front, 7-6.

"This was one of those 'not to be denied' games," said Mesa field general Danny Schexnayder.
