Despite a fine performance by left fielder Howard Brown Jr., the Seattle Thunderbirds lost to the Los Angeles Knights, 6-5. Brown Jr. went 4 for 5 with a home run and 3 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. George Kyle got credit for the win, improving to 8-10. He allowed 5 runs on 14 hits in 9 innings. This win makes it 6 in a row for Los Angeles.

Les Hendrix was the walk-off hero for Los Angeles. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Knights right fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Winning in the last at-bat, there's nothing else like it," said Hendrix.
