The Dodgers look to improve their playoff seeding with a 9-3 win over Los Bravos at Rogers. Los Bravos throw Defusco onto the hill for perhaps his last YBL career start, ending it with the team he started with, against the team he played for the better part of 10 years. And in true Defusco fashion, he promptly drills Shatto in the ribs. Defusco had a good day at the dish, going 2-3. And Ari Glantz goes 2-4 with a 2-run 2b in the 2nd. Samp earns his 4th W of the year, giving up 2er in 4 innings. 'Salad' Shea and Rosy throw a clean last 3 innings to nail it down. After jumping out to a 2 run lead in the first, the Dodgers tack on 5 in the 2nd when Nick Tapper finally earns the Matchbox MVP with a grand slam into the right-center trees (despite a valiant effort from M.Uberti). He also k'd miserably against Smitty again. Clarke (2r)/Buddha/Campbell each add 2 hits. Fans of the game: the O'Keefes finally make an appearance!

Rob Macdonald does his best Jack Morris 1991 world series impression, throwing all 10 innings for the Minmen. Although this isn't the MLB World Series and Maca didn't hurl a shutout, it does allow the Minutemen to play more home games at Rogers next year as the Braves shift to Ronan.

Nationals get a nice team win late in the season with a patchwork lineup. Eoin McAvinchey goes the distance for the Nationals after a rocky first inning. On defense, Kevin Hopwood led the team with solid glove work, including a Sportscenter worthy double play to end a serious threat in the first inning. On offense, Pat Yee (2-4, 2R) set the pace while Villalona, von Harten, and Argetsinger all hit doubles. Schlesinger takes the loss for the Braves while Robb (2-3, HBP) led the Braves offensively.

Braves almost blow another one but manage to hang on for the 7-6 win over EBK at Rogers. Braves jump out to a 7-1 lead after 5, culminating with 4 runs in the 4th on a 2-run single by Billy Uberti and a 2-run double by Smith. Ryan cruised through 5 allowing 1 R on 5 hits but ran out of gas in the 6th as the Knights offense plated 5 on 4 hits, BB and HP. Greeley came in to stop the bleeding by way of a K and a fly-out. Smith shut the door in the 7th to preserve the victory, striking out the side. Glantz (3-4, 2 2B, 2 R) and Pekor (2-3, RBI, R) each had multi-hit games to lead the Braves offense. Lebron (3-5, 2B, 2 SB, R) and Mercado (2-3, 2 2B, 3 RBI, R, BB) led the Knights offense.
