The save was credited to Santiago Alonza, his 3rd.

Phoenix grabbed the momentum in the bottom of the fifth, when Watanabe, who is tied for 4th in the PL in doubles with 23, hit a solo home run. His 18th home run of the season put the Hotspur out in front, 3-2.

"I felt we were ready to go," said Phoenix manager Michael Esposito. "Our pregame was pretty good."
