Gladiators Pocket 7-6 Win Against Austin
Ton Ariëns, who finished 2nd in the AC in RBI with 120 in 2022, led Phoenix to a triumph over Austin. The final score was 7-6. The third baseman went 3 for 4, falling a triple shy of the cycle. He scored 2 runs and added 2 RBI. Manny Brant was called on to finish, recording his 21st save. The setback makes Austin 62-67.

Phoenix used the clutch hitting of Paul McCarthy to capture the win. The second baseman drilled a 2-run double in the top of the sixth inning to give the Gladiators the lead, 6-5. For the game, McCarthy had 1 single and 1 double in 4 at-bats.

Phoenix manager Brett Bartlett was pleased with the team's effort. "Our guys went out there and put good wood on the ball," he said.
