The Phoenix Gladiators withstood a fine game by New York left fielder Ben Callahan at Gladiators Ballpark, to upend the Nightmare, 7-6. Callahan went 2 for 3 with 2 home runs and 2 walks, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. Phoenix reliever Manny Brant picked up the win, raising his record to 4-4. Chris Wyzard was tagged with the loss. The Gladiators, at 74-74, have now won 5 straight.

Cory Sperber was the walk-off hero for Phoenix. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Gladiators first baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"We'll keep playing hard and let the chips fall where they may," said Phoenix manager .
