Mercedes-Benz Field, Harrison: The second part of the Halloween Derby goes, with the Spiders trying to salvage a split after an early-season loss to their bitterest rivals.

Slinks answered with 440 for Harrison, giving the hosts a sizable lead. Rainmane just flicked a ball on her backhand out of bounds, giving her just 31 for the Spiders. Twinkie II had a humble start, but gained momentum and ended with 1065 for the Specters, extending their lead to a wide margin. Sugar took just 199 for Web City as it appears to be a lost game for them. Sydney tacked on 470 for Harrison as they continue to keep the pressure high. Shiny's 407 was far from enough for the Spiders, as they dropped a loss with 701 overall. Brownie had a simple 66 to give the Specters a final of 2041 in the win. Harrison surprises with the season sweep, going to 13-16 now, while Web City takes another setback to 10-14, falling behind their opponents with the division loss.

Shelley wasted no time in giving the Torpedoes a lead, raking in 467 on her turn to give them the minor advantage. Roxy answered right back with 481 for Freedom, covering the deficit easily.

Nikolai rolled 135 for the Cascades, potentially costing them the game as they finish far from safe at 1364. Whiskers botched the comeback, taking a measly 16 to put the Torpedoes at a loss with 1158.

Pepsi Prestige Park, Lighton: The West Division gets highlighted with a pair of teams currently in playoff positions. Watermelon had only 233 this time after her great previous outing, putting Pearl at a weak starting point. Acorn's ill-timed swing resulted in a ball going back over his head, giving him a pathetic 6 points for Lighton. Neopolitan struck 719 to supplement the Surfers lead in an effective way. Spirit scored 292 for the struggling Prestige. Wings swung 564 for Pearl, but as many have recently, he ended with an unintentional backwards hit. Twinkie I asnwered with 482 for Lighton, but it's likely too little and too late. Cowzart chipped 98 to give the Surfers a grand total of 1614. Lydia had a respectable 304 for the Prestige, but they took the loss with 1084, their third straight at home. Pearl is up to 20-9, while also going 4-1 on a five-game road trip, while Lighton slides to 15-12 with an unsightly 2-5 division mark.

Jake tried to use his backhand to save his turn, but the ball took just the right arc to be out of his reach and land squarely on the wicket, giving him only 110 for the Crowns. Bryant had a measly 64 for the Lumberjacks, which put them farther behind. Marsell batted 487 to give Royal a more stable lead as the game enters its late phases.

Citrus had a critical misplay for the Gems, scoring only 64 on her turn. Bells also struggled, putting up a meager 39 for the Waves in a terrible showing.

Wings suffered a sticky pitch that sent his score down to 96, keeping Pearl just slightly ahead with a player each to go. Puff I scored 211 for the Union, ending their attack at 2170, far from a secure lead in this crazy game. Cowzart laid out for 232, sending the Surfers to victory with 2237.
