The Belleville Bulls faced a tough opponent in Niagara Falls pitcher Javier Matajudíos, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Waterfall Park by a final score of 7-6. Matajudíos went 5.2 innings and allowed 3 earned runs. Belleville reliever Dave Wheeler picked up the win, upping his record to 4-1. Cherles Gachineiro shouldered the loss. The Belleville Bulls have an impressive 58-37 record.

The most important at-bat for Belleville came in the top of the ninth inning, when third baseman Tomás Bermúdez stroked a 3-1 fastball to right for a run-scoring triple, putting Belleville up, 7-6.

"I still think this team has room for improvement," Bermúdez told the Belleville Bulletin.
