Explorers Squeeze By Phoenix, 3-2
Phoenix got a valiant performance from pitcher Reid Detmers, but it wasn't enough to beat the Chicago Explorers. Chicago won the game, 3-2. Detmers threw 7.0 innings of 4-hit ball for the losing team. Kyle Nelson, summoned from the bullpen, notched his 3rd save. Chicago has run its win streak to 5 in a row.

Chicago used the timely hitting of Jesus Sanchez to seize the win. The right fielder stroked a 2-run single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Explorers on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"As well as we've been playing, I think we can play even better," said Chicago manager Rock Carpenter.
