Both teams had their chances, but the South Beach Blaze eventually prevailed at Pipers Ballpark.

The Blaze had to overcome a fine performance from Gwinnett County pitcher Luis Arreola to grab a 5-2 win at Pipers Ballpark. Arreola went 8 innings and allowed 1 earned run. South Beach reliever Doug Carlton picked up the win, upping his record to 2-0. Rafael Méndez was saddled with the loss.

Bastiaan Trommel's hit in the top of the 11th was a game-changer. With one out, he rapped a fastball from Rafael Méndez for a run-scoring single. It put South Beach in front, 3-2.

"This game tested our mettle," said Trommel.

South Beach, at 16-25, occupies last place in the Premier A.
