Gigans Snatch Late Win
Fans watched the Niigata Gigans and the Grand Rapids Rafters fight to the finish.

Niigata pitcher Steve Erwin did his part in helping his team beat the Grand Rapids Rafters, 4-3. The right-hander kept opposing batters from doing too much damage. The Gigans now own a record of 80-57.

Niigata used the timely hitting of Marvin Slocombe to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the 14th inning to put the Gigans on top, 4-3. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Exciting game to play in," said Slocombe. "Getting the win makes it even better."
