Jeff Smith pitched a great game to earn the 11-4 win. He was also two for three at the plate and earned five RBIs.

The Brewers had to battle back again earning two more runs in the sixth inning to go ahead 5-4 on a hit by Leonhardt, a triple by Pearn and a triple by Scott McDonald. It was a great game that put the Brewers into the A final of the B division side of the tournament against the Exeter Braves. Leonhardt again was on the mound for the Brewers. A great defensive play by third baseman Pearn on a fly ball over the fence was a spectacular out.
