Northern Virginia Rainbow Mermaids starter Yan van der Meijden was in a rhythm all game. He led his team to a win over the Thunder Bay Northern Lions BC, 2-1. van der Meijden, now 3-1, was the winner. In 8 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 4, walking 2, and allowing 1 run. With the win, the Rainbow Mermaids improved to 36-43.

Northern Virginia relied on the bat of Charlie Townsend to get the win. The right fielder ripped a run-scoring double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Rainbow Mermaids ahead, 2-1. For the game, Townsend had 1 double and 1 triple in 4 at-bats.

"I like to keep things lively in the clubhouse," said van der Meijden. "Believe me, it's much easier after a win."
