The 21 year-old right hander pitched against the Surprise Talons on 2-Sep-2045. The Gotham Heroes came out on winning end of a 1 to 0 score and Connolly was not involved in the decision leaving his AAA league record with Gotham at 10-7. During the game, Connolly pitched 5.1 innings allowing 0 runs on 6 hits while walking 0 and striking out 6. Out of his 93 pitches thrown, 56 of those pitches were for strikes.

This performance left Connolly with a 3.40 ERA and a 1.17 WHIP in his 28 starts for the Heroes.

"My stuff was definitely better today," Connolly said after the game.
