Chicago Sent Home with 4-1 Loss
Bill Flowers, who is a three-time All-Star, imposed his will on the Gangsters from the get-go. Relying mainly on his fastball, the left-hander spearheaded the 4-1 Phoenix triumph. Rob Alvarez earned the save, his 8th. The last-place Gangsters have dropped 4 straight games.

In the bottom of the second inning, designated hitter Gabriel Crear had a 2-run double for Phoenix. It was his 23rd double of the season and put the Gladiators on top, 2-0.

"The effort we put into this one paid off," Crear said.
