Gonzalez Hits 3 home runs in Suns Win
Suns catcher Edgar Gonzalez put his stamp on his team's 8-3 win over the Denver Cutthroats. Gonzalez belted 3 home runs for Arizona in the contest. Brian Phillips earned the win, while 28-year old left-handed pitcher Heinz Brown took the loss for Denver. The second-place Cutthroats dropped to 44-19.

Takanori Umeda was 1-5 with a home run. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for Arizona. The 36-year old right fielder had a key at-bat in the top of the seventh. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 3-3 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Heinz Brown. It was his 17th RBI of the season.

"Getting a lot of baserunners and getting some timely hits, it's a good combination," said Gonzalez.
