Gant Excels, Orlando Blows Out New York
The Orlando Devil Rays got production from their entire lineup in an easy 16-3 win over the New York Yankees. Player of the game honors went to left fielder Ron Gant. Gant, who is tied for 9th in the FL in hits with 18, went 3 for 3 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 2. Jimmy Key went 7.1 innings for Orlando to pick up the win. The left-hander was charged with 3 earned runs. He scattered 6 hits, while walking 1 and striking out 4. His record improves to 1-2. New York, at 1-12, is off to a dreadful start in 1997.

Gant came through with some timely hitting for Orlando. With the score 0-0 in the bottom of the first and two down, Gant hit a first pitch fastball for a 2-run home run. His 5th home run of the season made it 2-0, Orlando.

"Everyone's kind of edgy right now," said losing manager Tigerr Wolfe, "but nothing a couple of wins wouldn't cure."
