Saguaros Use Late Score to Top Salamanders, 4-3
Mesa beat Scottsdale at Hohokam Park, eking out a 4-3 win. The win was due in large part to left fielder David Limon. He hit 2 home runs. Eli Brown, credited with the win in relief, is now 3-1. He allowed no runs on 3 hits in 2 innings. The first-place Saguaros bumped their record to 31-10.

Mesa took advantage of an error in the top of the 11th inning. The game was tied, 3-3, when Victor Echevarria hit a run-scoring single that was misplayed. It put the Saguaros in front, 4-3.

"Feels good to be on the winning side," said Echevarria.
