23ers Take Tight Tangle
The Fountain Hills 23ers downed the Halifax Heathens, 12-11, at Fountain Park. The 23ers were led by David McGowan. McGowan was 3 for 5 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks, while scoring 3 times and driving in 3. Jaheim Johnson earned the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The left-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 3 innings. His record is now 3-1. Fountain Hills is now 74-77, while Halifax is 93-58.

Up to bat in the bottom of the 12th, 23-year old catcher Adam Conrad had a chance to be the hero. Halifax pitcher Steve McManus wanted to foil that plan. But with one out, Conrad hit a sacrifice fly. The 23ers had themselves a thrilling win.

"This place was jumping at the end," Conrad said.
