AZ SnakePit 3, CGS 7
Leaders Snake fell to CGS, who took all five hitting categories, behind Francisco's three HR and seven RBI. Walker also homered twice for them. Snake had better success on the mound, where Romo notched three Saves, but Darvish struck out 11, allowing CGS to canter to victory.
Gregorius B.I.G. 2, Disabled Waffles 8
The biggest blowout went to Waffles, who overcame their pitching injuries, behind Wilson's W and 15 strikeouts, with Lee adding a W + 10 K. Rosenthal had three Sv for BIG. On offense, Waffles got three HR by Solarte, and two + seven RBI from Cruz. Freeman matched Cruz for Gregorius.

Trail-Hitters 5, Angry Saguaro 5

Got Grittiness? 4, Space Wizard 5
Space edged this one by the smallest possible margin, after Wins ended tied. Wizard took all the other pitching points, thanks to Lincecum's W + 17 K's, and also snatched SB; they also got four HR and six RBI from Ortiz. Puig had three HR + 10 RBI for Got, and Goldschmidt nine RBI.
The Rusty Trumbones 3, Alabama Slammers 7
The Slammers racked up 77 K's and a collective 1.77 ERA, Chavez's two W and 13 strikeouts leading the way; Holland had three Saves, as did Soriano for the Trombones. They also got two HR and six RBI from Teixeira, but Gardner's two HR and seven RBI for Alabama gave them victory.
