Fightin Phils Keep Streak Alive with Late Rally
The Reading Fightin Phils had to overcome a fine effort from New Hampshire pitcher Ben Zapata to win, 4-2, at Northeast Delta Dental Stadium. Zapata went 7.1 innings and allowed 1 run. The winner was Manny Gonzalez, who threw 91 pitches over 7 innings. The right-hander was charged with 2 runs on 4 hits. Mike Ruiz was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 6 of 9 save opportunities.

Reading needed the clutch hitting of Tony Fernandez to seal the deal. The shortstop swatted a grand slam home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Fightin Phils on top, 4-2. For the game, Fernandez had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"We've hit a rough patch right now," said New Hampshire skipper Quinn Autrey.

The win puts the Fightin Phils at 40-41, while the Fisher Cats drop to 40-40.
