Grizzlies center fielder Carlos García left his mark on his team's 15-6 win over the Phoenix Fireballs.

Miguel Valedón, who leads the PL in wins with 17, was the winner. He's now 17-3. The loser was Keith Smith. Denver improves to 93-52 with the win. They lead their division by 9 games.

With Denver leading 12-6 in the bottom of the seventh, García came up to bat against Phoenix pitcher Alex Battle. García hit a fastball to left for a 3-run home run. His 31st home run of the season put the Grizzlies on top, 15-6.

"Hustle and hard work is a big part of our success," said García. "Those qualities define our team."
