HR: K. Kai-Ren (WAS/1B/Giant Panda; 2), G. McDonald (HAW/C/Platypus; 17)

The Tikis ground out a long and hard-fought game against the Ravens, going deep into their bullpen after closer Jordan Salgardo (HAW/CL/Polecat) gave up five runs in the ninth to blow the save. The Tikis had help from their bats to keep in the game after the wild 9th, as the bases became loaded, with reliable reservist Moana Rivers (HAW/SS/Giant Otter) clearing the bases and keeping the home team in it in the ninth, and then driving in the winning run in the 13th inning as knuckleballer Franklin Heyward put the Tikis on his broad shoulders and kept the Ravens in fits for the rest of the game.

HR: V. Salazar (OMA/1B/Spectacle Bear; 10), E. Harrison (OMA/RF/Rhino; 15)

Omaha continued their recent tear, winning 10 out of their last 15 to come within one game of Hawaii, lead by their twin towers of Valencia Salzar and Edmond Harrison hitting for the Meadowlarks. Cristobal Duarte shook off the shelling he took last game and put in a gem, pitching a complete game with only a single earned run.


Marietta Sternwheelers (21-32) 0 0 0 0 1 0 4 0 1 6 9 0
Portland Pioneers (38-15) 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 4 10 1

HR: I. Gecko (MAR/SS/Gecko; 2), H. Featherwind (PDX/3B/Jackrabbit)

In the late game at Nike Field, the home crowd was disappointed, but they were still treated to an excellent pitchers' match as rookie Romero "Ourobouros" Castillo managed to hold his own against the Pioneers' dominant righty Ryand Mansfield. Castillo, who'd been just recently elevated to the Wheelers' starting rotation, lasted 8 innings with only 4 earned runs.
