Miller's Ale House Heavy Hitters 14-18, Della Polla's Tavern 11-17 >> Trailing by five runs, and facing a potential split decision in the second game, the Heavy Hitters of Miller's did their thing. Among the late bashing, Darius Repici knocked in the game's tying run, and scored the winner for good measure to help Miller's sweep out Della Polla's.

Antony Ditomo and Paul Akley both went 3-for-4 and knocked in three runs in the opening-game win, and Chuck Stewart went 5-for-7 with five RBIs through both contests.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Adam Mechanical 21-12, R.P. McMurphy's Bar & Grille 4-6 >> Adam Mechanical had a thing with threes on this day, as J.R.
