For nine innings, the Municipal Stadium scoreboard was a Star Trek convention (nothing but zeroes), until the Intimidators struck for two in the top of the 10th. The Suns responded with three to walk off with a 3-2 win and split the doubleheader. The gamewinner came on a suicide squeeze as Wilmer Difo laid a bunt down on the third-base line while Brennan Middleton charged in for the score. Derek Anderson vultured the win despite coughing up two runs on one hit and two walks in the final frame. Hector Silvestre, Michael Sylvestri, and Jake Walsh combined for nine scoreless innings with seven hits allowed and 11 strikeouts.
