Hotspur Reserves Stay Hot, Beat Timber Hawks
A 3-RBI performance from Alex Niemann, who is tied for 10th in the SAAA in home runs with 7, helped the Phoenix Hotspur Reserves beat the Augusta Timber Hawks, 9-5. Prince Nakamura picked up the win with 7 innings of work. He allowed 5 earned runs on 9 hits, while walking 0 and striking out 5. On the season, he is now 6-2. Earning his 4th save of the year was Rewa Malaki.

The Hotspur Reserves took the lead in the bottom of the fifth when Júlio Mateo banged a two-out home run. Phoenix had been trailing 5-3, but Mateo hit a 1-2 slider from Norm Burris for a 3-run home run.

"I still think this team has room for improvement," Mateo told the Phoenix Citizen.

Phoenix has 5 straight wins, Augusta 4 straight losses.
