Evergreens Turn Back Northern Virginia, 8-6
Despite a fine performance by first baseman Kyoji Hakoda, the Northern Virginia Rainbow Mermaids suffered a 8-6 loss to the Portland Evergreens. Hakoda was 4 for 5 with 4 singles. The winner was Giovanni Mireles, who threw 99 pitches over 6 innings. The right-hander was charged with 5 runs on 11 hits. Júlio Rodríguez recorded the save for Portland, his 9th of the season.

The game hit a turning point in the bottom of the fourth inning, when the Evergreens were trailing 4-3. Ramón Garmendia delivered a two-out 3-run home run for Portland, catapulting his team into the lead.

"We'll savor this win," Garmendia told the Portland Citizen, "then get ready for the next game."

Portland has now won 3 straight, while the Rainbow Mermaids have lost 3 in a row.
