A 4-RBI performance from Tim O'Connor helped the South Pasadena Air Riders beat the Niskayuna Fighting Knights, 15-13. By defeating Niskayuna, the first-place Air Riders improved to 37-40.

South Pasadena needed the clutch hitting of John Andrews to seal the deal. The designated hitter swatted a grand slam home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Air Riders on top, 14-13. For the game, Andrews had 1 home run and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

"I'm just trying to make good contact," said Andrews, "one at-bat at a time."
