Phoenix Nets 2-1 Win Versus Gangsters
Phoenix pitcher Johnny Keener did his part in helping his team beat the Chicago Gangsters, 2-1. The left-hander kept opposing batters from doing too much damage. Phoenix pitcher Manny Brant earned the win, hiking his record to 6-5. Braden Shaw suffered the loss. Phoenix has 4 straight wins, Chicago 3 straight losses.

Victor Gonzalez was the walk-off hero for Phoenix. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Gladiators right fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Johnny was able to locate to both sides, up and down," said Phoenix manager Brett Bartlett.
