Sperber Delivers Walk-Off Win for Gladiators
Phoenix parlayed a decent outing from starter Bill Flowers into a solid win over the Halifax Heathens. The final score was 6-5. Alpha Fields, now 2-1, picked up the win in relief. He allowed 1 run on 4 hits in 1.1 innings. With this game in the books, Phoenix is 29-34, Halifax 37-26.

Cory Sperber was the walk-off hero for Phoenix. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Gladiators first baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"This game had its share of tense moments," Flowers said, postgame.
