Gold Sox Clip Hotspur in Tight Contest
Chicago Gold Sox starter Jesús Franco was in fine form against the Phoenix Hotspur at Gold Sox Field, leading his team to a 5-3 win. Franco picked up the win for Chicago, going 8.1 innings. He gave up 3 runs on 7 hits. He now sports a record of 1-0. The save went to Ilie Paunescu, his 3rd this season.

Had Zeus Preckwinkle not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Preckwinkle hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 4-3, in favor of the Gold Sox.

"We did a lot of things right," said Preckwinkle.

Chicago improves to 4-3 as they look to defend their championship.
