May 27, 2006: Shining Stars

Invariably, a team whose star players actually play like stars on that given day will win. And today saw Fleetwood's stars shine the brightest.

Derrek Lee, Jim Edmonds and Miguel Cabrera each hit solo home runs, and Greg Maddux provided 7 exceptional innings. Arthur Rhodes and Derrick Turnbow then came in finish what Maddux had started.

Fleetwood wins 3-2, and goes for a four-game sweep of Brooklyn tomorrow.
