Heathens Take Down Gladiators, 3-2
In a tight tilt between the Halifax Heathens and the Phoenix Gladiators, Adam D'Alberto was the difference-maker. The Halifax left-hander excelled in his team's 3-2 win in 10 innings. The Heathens have an impressive 41-22 record.

A crucial at-bat came with runners on 1st and 3rd and two out in the bottom of the seventh inning. That's when pinch hitter Ernesto Ramirez, who led the NC in RBI with 138 in 2024, hit a run-scoring single. The Heathens went on to win.

"Winning in the last at-bat, there's nothing else like it," said D'Alberto.
