Philadelphia Beats Phoenix, 7-3
Philadelphia picked up a win at Marauders Ballpark, bumping off the Phoenix Gladiators, 7-3. Pitcher Xavier Cooper was a major reason the Marauders emerged victorious. The win gives Philadelphia a season record of 89-63.

Joel Thompson had a big solo home run for the Marauders in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Philadelphia leading 3-2 and the bases empty, he sized up a fastball from Ton Ariëns, who finished 2nd in the AC in home runs with 44 in 2022, and punished it. The result was his 1st home run of the season, which put the Marauders on top, 4-2.

"Xavier was really on it," said Philadelphia manager Danny Ordaz. "He's got a feel for playing with the hitter front-to-back, side-to-side."
