Cincinnati picked up a win at Tice Memorial Stadium II, bumping off the New York Imperials, 12-3. Pitcher Marco Middleton was a major reason the Cannons emerged victorious.

The Cannons picked up the win with a combination of good hitting and good pitching.

"Marco showed what he's made of," said Cincinnati manager Hal Upton.
