Mercedes-Benz Forum, Harrison: The Knights get another game in the northeast, facing an inconsistent Specters side. Kiwi took only 78 for Terrace City in a disappoint opening to the game. Slinks didn't do any better, taking a measly 36 for Harrison as the segment gets off to a cold start. Jennifer took a pathetic 33 for the Knights as scoring remains absent. Twinkie II spiked 432 for the Specters, giving them the first really legitimate lead in the game. Oreo rallied for 784 to give Terrace City a shot at the game, making things competitive in the latter stages. Sydney pulled in 290 in a somewhat messy appearance for Harrison, and they now trail slightly with a player each to go. Stripes swung 537 after a slow start, representative of the game as a whole. The Knights had a final of 1432. Brownie's 272 was not enough for the Specters, as they lost with 1030 after squandering their earlier advantage. Terrace City bounces back for the win to go to 13-10, snapping a four-game losing streak, while Harrison's losing streak is at five games as they fall to 11-15.

Smudge had only 112 in response for Infinity, putting them in a familiar trailing position. Hoot barely cancelled that out, taking a weak 117 for the Tridents as the game turns a bit sloppy. Shelley cut into the deficit with a middling 209 for the Torpedoes. Precious left the Pronger lead in more danger by collecting only 192 on her turn for the visitors. Gabe capitalized more fully for Infinity, pulling 472 to make it a tie game with the final players coming to bat. Paps dribbled 36 for the Tridents, leaving them at 829 and giving the hosts a low bar to clear. Whiskers took only 41, but the Torpedoes emerged with a win on 834 points. Infinity has a bit of momentum now, going to 5-15 with the win, while Pronger's recent surge stalls at 7-11.
Pepsi Prestige Park, Lighton: The Prestige look to sweep a Spiders side that is playing much better than in their first meeting. Shadow had a mediocre start with only 248 for Web City, leaving them in a bad position. Acorn slugged 907 in response for Lighton, giving them a large lead at the start. Rainmane just barely missed on a backhand flick, but she would have faced more problems, and her 537 is a solid effort for the Spiders regardless of how it ended. Spirit let the Prestige lead slip a bit as she hauled in only 264. Sugar didn't do enough on her turn, scoring 280 for Web City to keep the deficit level. Twinkie I had 529 for Lighton to pad the lead and give them a bit more security late in the game. Shiny struggled with 177 for the Spiders, and they suffered a loss with 1242.

UPS Ground, Maplewood: The East Division gets some time in the spotlight with two middle-of-the-pack teams meeting up. Strawberry had 480 for Pronger, as her recent road efforts remain remarkably steady. Fluffina put Maplewood behind early, grabbing just 99 on her opening turn. Hoot mishit the same ball three times, chipping it once, redirecting a second time, and then slamming it backwards into the stumps the third to end his contributions at 157 for the Tridents. Bryant ripped 920 for the Lumberjacks, flipping the game around as the hosts are now in the lead. Precious tripped up with 106 for Pronger, allowing the deficit to get starker. Diddley tacked on another 633 for Maplewood to solidify the lead heading into the final players. Paps forced a minor response, lining 919 to give the Tridents a final score of 1662, which will likely not be enough anyway. Cubby capped the Lumberjacks win with 409 to give them 2061 total. Maplewood is north of .500 now, standing at 9-8, while Pronger drops to 7-12 as their struggles within the division remain a critical hindrance.
Google Pitch at Union Ground, Modernistic: The Gems put their recent run of good form on the line against the Union. Smokey crushed 940 for Diamond to get them off to an excellent start. Juno faltered with 96 for Modernistic, failing to answer with any semblance of confidence. Citrus got victimized by a bad bounce, taking in only 42 for the Gems. Ms. Puppy also only had 96 for the Union as the hosts see their offense sputtering halfway through the game. Pedey ended on a failed backhand, but he slapped a crisp 648 for Diamond before that happened, extending their lead to likely untouchable lengths. Chimpy answered with 327 for Modernistic, their best of the game but far from enough to be useful. Cassandra found a way to impress in the blowout, dazzling with her bat maneuvering en route to a score of 708, which gave the Gems 2338 as their final in a likely victory. Puff I chopped 476 for the Union, but they still took a brutal loss with 995 total. Diamond stays so hot right now in going to 12-10 on a five-game winning streak, while Modernistic is down to 8-12.
AT&T Oceanside Stadium, Oceanside: The Waves get an opponent they'd rather not face while ice-cold at home, although there doesn't appear to be a good time to face the Eagles this season. Goldy rattled off another impeccable effort, striking 876 for Everton to give them a strong lead. Snuggle got stymied with 232 for Oceanside as another long game looms. Puff III had to react quickly with a ball on her backhand, and this meant posting just 231 to keep the Eagles lead steady. Bells got the Waves much closer, knocking 560 to tighten things up a bit halfway through the game. Cleo picked up 263 for Everton, allowing the lead to get into a precarious position. Alyssa made the deficit shrink a little more with 373 for Oceanside, setting up a tense ending. Blizzard hit 272 for the Eagles, putting them at a far from safe final score of 1642. Pounce couldn't do it, poking 115 to leave the Waves well short at 1280. Everton dodges a bullet to get to 20-2, the first 20-win team this season.

Ms. Kitty clubbed 776 to give the Volcanoes a larger lead at the halfway mark. Marsell picked up 328 for Royal, but they still face a significant deficit. Jack kept things fairly steady, posting 368 for Pacific as they maintain a big lead in the latter stages of the game. Nightfur had a solid effort with 504 for the Crowns, but they still suffered defeat at 1149 total. Leonette pounded out 538 to ice the Volcanoes win at 2125, a very strong team performance. Pacific is up to 14-8 on the big win, while Royal continues a free-fall to 6-15 as losers of nine straight.
Honda Driftwood Coliseum, Pearl: The Surfers face a Lumberjacks team that is working on getting travel-fit after a light schedule to start the season. Fluffina took an average 280 for Maplewood, giving them an unremarkable opening. Watermelon stepped back from her recent pace, but still zipped in 592 for Pearl to give the hosts a lead. Bryant couldn't adjust to all of the weird bounces, falling with 144 for the Lumberjacks. Neopolitan had only 84 for the Surfers, getting completely stunned with a swing-and-miss moment. Diddley slammed 503 for Maplewood, making it a closer game heading into the later portion of the match. Wings flipped 545 before a ball got behind his bat, keeping Pearl in front by a slight margin. Cubby did everything in his power to stay alive, and then broke free for 375 for the Lumberjacks, ending their game at 1302, which will force a response from the hosts. Cowzart tapped 274 to secure the win for the Surfers at 1495. Pearl advances to 15-6, while Maplewood is back to even at 9-9.
Tridents Park sponsored by Ford, Pronger: The Tridents seek a sweep after embarrassing the Union in week 2 in Modernistic.

Ms. Puppy did not time her final swing well, getting spun around and producing only 160 for the Union after missing a bowled ball completely. Hoot churned out 569 to give the Tridents a confident lead at the game's midpoint. Chimpy had 424, shrinking the deficit a bit for Modernistic with a solid showing.

Snuggle rocketed Oceanside to a massive opening attack, belting 1044 at the start of the game. Frosty got shut down at 96 for Royal in a poor response. The Waves got another 305 from Bells, who wisely let a ball go through to draw a false start replay. Jake got cut down on an odd bounce, ending his efforts at 148 for the Crowns. Alyssa had just 24 for Oceanside in a rare weak outing. Marsell didn't exactly instill confidence for Royal, pulling in just 160.
