Extra-Inning Win by Gladiators Over Dragons
Dallas shortstop Jay Pearson had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 12-7, to Phoenix in 13 innings. Pearson was 4-6 with a double and 3 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Phoenix reliever Carlos Abarca was the winner. His record is now 1-2. Nick Kirshner took the loss. The defeat makes Dallas 85-71.

Phoenix used the timely hitting of Clemente Julio to seize the win. The first baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the 12th inning to put the Gladiators on top, 7-6. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

In postgame remarks, Julio said: "I'm proud of our guys, of their fight."
