Gladiators Rally Late to Nip Heathens
Behind the bravura of shortstop John Platzer, the Phoenix Gladiators topped the Halifax Heathens by the score of 9-8. Platzer was 3-3 with a double, 2 singles, and 2 walks for the Gladiators. With the win over Halifax, the Gladiators improved to 73-86.

The game was at a stalemate until right fielder Victor Gonzalez came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Halifax pitcher Jose Ojeda, he hit a 2-2 slider for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Phoenix on top, 9-8.

"We're a talented bunch when we're playing well," said Gonzalez. "I think we showed that here."
