The Falcons finally broke their winless streak, defeating the struggling Iron Fist 7-6. Arkansas went up 6-4 after the sixth, but Vancouver crawled back to tie it up at six. The Falcons won the game after Kevin Kouzmanoff hit a pinch hit home run leading off the bottom of the ninth. Vancouver's David Ortiz continued his hot streak, going 3-3 with a home run and 3 RBIs.
D.C.'s Derrek Lee led the Slapper offense with 6 RBIs in a 10-4 rout of the Mudcats. The Cats jumped out to a 4-0 lead, but it all fell apart in the eighth inning. Clinging to a 4-3 lead, reliever Brian Fuentes threw a can of gasoline on a fire and then tossed in some firecrackers to boot. Fuentes was responsible for six of the seven runs in that inning, while recording only two outs.
Newark's offense is at it again, smashing the Buddahs by a 19-3 margin. The Sugar Bears had 20 hits and 10 walks. Nick Swisher had 3 home runs and 7 RBIs. Meanwhile, Randy Johnson cruised on his way to his second win of the season, limiting Jersey to only 4 hits, and striking out eight in seven innings.
