Dusty slapped 545 for the Pilots, solidifying their lead a little more. Twinkie II also struggled for the Specters, managing only 161 in her turn as they fall farther behind. Strut unleashed a huge performance for Golden, completely locking into the zone to tally 2199 and essentially confirm their pending victory. Harrison's rookie Sydney had a completely reasonable 790 to at least give the hosts some respectability. A. Charlton tapped 80 to give the Pilots 3055 total in a likely win. Brownie only got 45 back for the Specters, giving them 1184 as their losing final. Golden's first road win of the season puts them at 3-5 while Harrison falls to 6-4.

Pepsi Prestige Park, Lighton: They're not done with their trip yet though, as the Tradewinds travel the short distance to visit Lighton. Tigerette played a little too chippy in her turn, producing just 82 for Commerce this time. Acorn countered with 376, and only a mistimed swing prevented it from being much more dangerous for the Lighton captain. Ice Cream made a big impact, knocking 801 for the Tradewinds to take over the lead. Spirit covered the gap by smacking 614 for the Prestige, but the lead is significantly smaller than before. Lionel faltered with 180 for Commerce, leaving them extremely vulnerable. Twinkie I got victimized by a sharp bounce, ending her efforts at 375 for Lighton but restoring a stronger lead. Lorde again forced a response, lining 527 to give the Tradewinds a final of 1590. Lydia answered with 463 for the Prestige, leading them to a victory with 1828 total.

Google Pitch at Union Ground, Modernistic: Playing in their blacks again, the Union host a highly successful Specters team. Slinks pounded 456 for Harrison to lead off very effectively. Juno stepped up, blasting 1124 for Modernistic to take a strong lead from the start. Twinkie II got too bold too early, ending up with 195 for the Specters as the game starts to slip away from them. Ms. Puppy batted a calm 695 for the Union, extending their lead well. Sydney managed only 92 for Harrison, another poor showing in this match. Chimpy tapped 167 for Modernistic, putting them on cruise control. Brownie had a strong 407 for the Specters, but they lost with 1150 total. Puff I spiked 690 to give the Union a final of 2676 in their win. Modernistic got an important win to go to 3-3, while Harrison drops to 6-5 as they have lost a bit of their mojo this week.

Paige tacked on 492 for the Flames, giving them a strong final of 2033. Pounce got absolutely duped, swinging and missing early to produce only 25 points for the Waves as they took a loss with 857. Queens got a big win to go to 2-3, while Oceanside drops down to 3-3 after a promising start turned dark.
Verizon Field, Pacific: Spice batted 492 to lead off for Victoria, giving them their typical good start. Starlight managed only 179 after she couldn't get to backhand quickly enough. B. Chapman took a modest 274 for the Spurs, keeping the lead fairly steady. Ms. Kitty also got victimized by the backhand, as well as a bad bounce, that put her at only 171 for the Volcanoes. Yekaterina pummeled 832 to secure the Victoria lead as they appear set to take their first win of the season at this point. Jack chipped back with 552 in a strong showing for Pacific, keeping them theoretically in range. Kavan flicked 313 for the Spurs, giving them a final of 1911 as they await the final reply of the game. Leonette only had 112 for the Volcanoes, and they lost with 1014.

Central has won four straight on the road, moving to 6-4 overall, while Queens is down to 2-4 on the season.
Kraft Crowns Park, Royal: Princess cranked out 564 for Tysini, a reasonably good start for the superstar. Frosty's poor home play reared its head again, as she managed only 112 for Royal after an odd bounce caught her mid-swing. Leandra slammed 546 for the Hummingbirds, as she continues to be the second half of a formidable opening duo for the visitors. Jake grabbed 272 for the Crowns, putting a small dent in the deficit. Charli tallied another 457 for the white-hot Tysini offense. The first of two former Tysini players, Marsell, had a pathetic 57 in his first official appearance against his former team for Royal, likely confirming a loss for the hosts. Bright poked 242 to give the Hummingbirds 1809 as their final in what will likely be a win. Nightfur, another former Hummingbird, disappoint with just 49 for the Crowns, giving them a loss with an embarrassing 490 total points.
