New York Topples Detroit, 6-2
A good performance from shortstop Matt Davis helped the New York Nightmare defeat the Detroit Giants, 6-2. Davis went 3-4 with 2 doubles, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3 for the Nightmare. Mario Ruiz picked up the win, improving his season record to 5-17. He struck out 6 in 6 innings. Jeremy Gray, who finished 4th in the AC in wins with 17 in 2016, nailed down the save.

Early in the game, Davis had a 2-run double for New York. It was his 13th double of the season and put the Nightmare on top, 2-0.

Said losing manager Blake Barber: "It's very easy to sit in an ivory tower and critique the pitching, but the bottom line is we need to score runs."

After today's action, New York sits at 58-100; Detroit slips to 62-96.
