Invaders Outmuscle New York, 12-9
The Oakland Invaders beat the New York Nightmare in a game featuring much hitting but not much pitching. The final score was 12-9, Invaders. One of the hitting stars was catcher Mike Sligar. Sligar, who is tied for 5th in the NC in total bases with 218, went 4-5 with a double and 3 singles, while scoring 3 runs. The winning pitcher was 26-year old left-handed pitcher Dennis Allen. He tossed 78 pitches over 5 innings, allowing 5 runs on 7 hits. Chris Brown picked up the save, his 3rd.

John Piscitelli, who finished 4th in the NC in batting average with .316 last year, chipped in a 2-run single for Oakland in the bottom of the fourth. For the game, the left fielder had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 2 runs scored, and 3 runs batted in.

"It was a nice win for our side today," said Invaders manager Dillon Moyer. "Not perfect, but we'll take it."

The second-place Invaders sport a record of 55-62.
