Once again Newtown went out ahead early, leading 5-1 after 3 innings, and again Atlantic came back, this time with two 6-run innings to gain the victory, 16-6. Dreambucket again lead Atlantic with 4 hits, including a double and a triple. Shakespeare and Wildhorse had 3 hits each, while Willy Mo contributed 2 hits, including his first triple. Shakespeare pitched the complete game victory, holding Newtown scoreless the last 5 innings.
