Impalas Get Clutch Win Versus Phoenix
Behind a solid performance from shortstop Mário Santiago, the Tempe Impalas defeated the Phoenix Armadillos, 6-5. Santiago was 4-4 with a home run and 3 singles for the Impalas. Axel Steele, credited with the win in relief, is now 1-0. He allowed 2 runs on 3 hits in 2 innings. The Impalas, now 2-1, have been playing some good baseball.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the ninth inning, when Tempe left fielder J P. Vargas, facing Rufus Heath, had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. It gave the Impalas the 6-5 win.

"I'm glad I could get it done when the game was in the balance," Vargas said in his postgame press conference.
