Northern Virginia starter Craig Culver put a stranglehold on the Thunder Bay offense. The left-hander had complete command of his curveball in leading the Rainbow Mermaids to a 2-1 win. The first-place Rainbow Mermaids go to 67-22.

Miguel Bustamante electrified the crowd in the bottom of the ninth when he took Thunder Bay pitcher Dan Taylor deep. His solo home run sent the Rainbow Mermaids home winners.

"Craig was Craig," said Rainbow Mermaids manager David Lister. "We know what we'll get whenever he takes the mound."
