Phoenix Hangs 6-4 Loss on Tampa Bay
The Phoenix Firebirds defeated the Tampa Bay Bandits, 6-4, in part because of designated hitter Joey Gallo. Gallo was 2-3 with a home run, a triple, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 for the Firebirds. Edwin Diaz finished the game for Phoenix and earned his 6th save. With the loss, Tampa Bay is 15-7.

Gallo had a game-changing triple in the bottom of the eighth. On a full count fastball from Ryan Pressly, he banged a run-scoring triple to right, giving the Firebirds a 5-4 lead. It was the 1st triple of the year for Gallo.

"We had some nice at-bats at the right time," said Firebirds manager Pat McGoldrick.
