Niagara Falls Expos starter Mike Brandner was locked-in. He led his team to a win over the Grand Forks Caterpillars, 5-3. The Expos are now 27-31, while the Caterpillars fall to 27-31.

Augusto Encarnación had the most critical at-bat for Niagara Falls, coming in the top of the 12th inning with no one out and the bases empty. Encarnación hit a 1-0 curveball from Jim Unknown for a solo home run. It put Niagara Falls in front, 4-3.

"To not win that game stings a little bit," said Grand Forks manager Todd England.
