Tigers Earn 8-6 Win Against Firecats
The London Tigers beat the Hialeah Firecats by a score of 8-6. London shortstop Guillermo Alcorta deserved the lion's share of the credit. Alcorta was 2 for 4 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 for the Tigers. Chris Degen finished to wrap up his 2nd save. Now 38-101, Hialeah has lost 13 in a row.

London needed the clutch hitting of Grant Gatzke to notch the win. The right fielder hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the 13th inning to put the Tigers on top, 8-6. For the game, Gatzke had 1 home run and 1 single in 3 at-bats.

"It's going to click," said Hialeah manager John Costa. "It's just a matter of when."
