Thrilling Walk-Off Win for Tigers
Thanks in large part to right fielder Chris Gibson, the Detroit (GCL) Tigers beat the Philadelphia (GCL) Phillies, 5-3. Gibson was 3 for 4 with a triple, 2 doubles, and a walk. He drove in 2 runs. The win boosted Detroit (GCL) to 26-8.

The decisive blow was delivered by Danny Howell in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a 2-run home run off 19-year old right-handed pitcher Borisav Perisic to win the game for Detroit (GCL). The home crowd went nuts.

"That last inning was electric," Howell said.
