Vipers Earn Win with Late Rally
The outcome was not decided until the very end at The Snake Pit.

Illinois got a valiant performance from pitcher Wilbert Lockhart, but it wasn't enough to beat the Arizona Vipers. Arizona won the game, 3-2. Lockhart threw 7.0 innings of shutout ball for the losing team. Arizona has run its win streak to 4 consecutive.

The decisive blow was delivered by Chris Shaffer in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a 2-run double off 21-year old left-handed pitcher Mat Stephens to win the game for Arizona. The home crowd went nuts.

"We faced good pitching and still got it done," said Shaffer.
