Giants win close one at home, 5-3.

The Topeka Golden Giants won a close game at home tonight against division rival St. Joseph, ending the night with five runs to the Mustangs three. The Giants combined some great defensive plays, aggressive baserunning, timely hitting, and solid pitching performances by both starter Evan Marshall (8 innings) and closer Kurt Spomer.

It was announced at the end of the game that the Giants have a half-game lead in the MINK League Northern division. Chillicothe comes to town to face the Giants in another divional matchup tomorrow (Friday) night at 7 p.m. Every game is critical at this point, so come on out to Lake Shawnee to support your Topeka Golden Giants.

The Giants are now 8-3 in the MINK (8-4 overall).
