Tangorra Excels in 10-5 San Francisco Win
The San Francisco Fire handed the Detroit Giants a loss at Ballpark of Detroit. The final score was 10-5. Major production was provided by Rich Tangorra for San Francisco. In addition to his 2 singles and 1 home run, he scored 2 runs and drove in 3. He also added 1 walk. The winning pitcher was 29-year old right-handed pitcher Chris Benson. He tossed 104 pitches over 6.1 innings, allowing 3 runs on 8 hits. The third-place Fire improved to 31-27.

The Fire got an important contribution from second baseman Dusty Ward, who in the top of the second hit a changeup to right for a 3-run home run. It was his 11th home run of the season and put the Fire ahead, 7-0.

"The boys were really swinging the bats today," winning manager Zach Freeman said.
