Fightin Phils Down RubberDucks, 4-2
Fans who congregated at Canal Park were treated to extra-inning drama.

The Reading Fightin Phils got a stellar performance from pitcher Willie Howard, who handcuffed the Akron offense en route to a win, 4-2, at Canal Park. Reading is now 64-48.

Reading used a timely hit from Alfredo Espinoza to get the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the 14th inning to put the Fightin Phils ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"If we play like this, we can win a lot of games," Espinoza told the Reading Daily News.
