Fightin Phils Capture Extra-Inning Win
The Reading Fightin Phils wiggled past the Trenton Thunder, 3-2, in 10 innings at Arm & Hammer Park. The win was highlighted by the performance of Reading pitcher Jose Esparza. The Fightin Phils are now 48-56, while the Thunder fall to 42-63.

Though he didn't earn the victory, Esparza kept his team in the game until the bullpen took over and the Reading offense came through. Over 8.1 innings, he allowed 4 hits and 1 run, while striking out 5.

"I made a lot of good pitches," said Esparza. "I was right where I wanted to be."
