Cole picks up his 16th win and W.Smith closed it out for his 7th save.
YSS 5, SBL 3 |
| Game #6: | Another close tight game. YSS gets 2 in the T5 on a Turner rbi-2b and Hicks sac fly. SBL get all their runs in the B6 on a Trumbo 2-run HR and an Altuve bases loaded walk. Thats all the scoring in the game. Blach gets his 5th win and Osuna gets his 32nd save.
