Ms. Kitty slapped another 840 for the Volcanoes, extending the lead to a ridiculous margin. Spirit countered with 752 for the Prestige, giving the hosts a sign of life, however small that sign may be. Jack tacked on 336 for Pacific, maintaining the lead subtly. Twinkie I countered with 433 for Lighton, chipping at the deficit again. Leonette poked 287 for the Volcanoes, giving them 2645 in a dominant effort likely to go in the books as a win.

Google Pitch at Union Ground, Modernistic: The Union debut their blue home jerseys in their first match against a western team. Panda regressed to only 28 points for Southern in a poor start. Juno didn't do a lot better, posting 90 for Modernistic in a similarly weak start. Shannon looked to produce decently, but unraveled late and had 215 for the Monarchs. Ms. Puppy chipped 197 for the Union, keeping things low and close at the halfway point. Kirstin got cut down at 202 after her backhand swing got redirected into the out zone, sawing away a decent showing for the Southern rookie.

Alyssa's 327 gave Oceanside a very narrow lead heading into the final players for each team. Nikolai smacked 513 for the Cascades, producing a final of 1674 and turning the attention toward Pounce.
