Toronto Beats New York City in 18-Inning Thriller
Toronto went toe-to-toe with New York City before a winner was decided.

The Toronto Titans clipped the New York City Blues, 5-2, in 18 innings at Blues Field. The standout performance belonged to Toronto pitcher and Keansburg, New Jersey, native Jonathan Benders. Brian Phillips earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The left-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 3.1 innings. He upped his record to 4-2.

Toronto took advantage of an error in the top of the 18th inning. The game was tied, 2-2, when Adolfo Milagres hit a run-scoring single that was misplayed. It put the Titans in front, 3-2.

Benders told a Toronto Chronicle reporter that he felt "elated" after the win.

Toronto is looking good at 41-18.
