Great Effort by McLaughlin Wasted in 11-8 Giants Loss
The Fountain Hills 23ers and Detroit Giants lit up the scoreboard.

Steve McLaughlin did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the Detroit Giants from being beaten, 11-8, to the Fountain Hills 23ers at Ballpark of Detroit. McLaughlin was 3 for 5 with a home run, a triple, and a double, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 5. With the win, Fountain Hills has a record of 70-71. Detroit falls to 72-69.

Fountain Hills used the stroke of Dan Canady to get the win. The shortstop hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the 23ers ahead, 4-3. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Canady said.
