Storm looked like they were going to cruise to a victory against The Crew as they scored six runs in the first inning without recording an out. Then they recorded six straight outs without recording a run in the second and third innings, and suddenly found themselves trailing 8-6. They managed to squeak one run in the fourth to make it 8-7, but the Crew added two in the fifth to go up 10-7. Storm finally remembered how to hit in the sixth, and scored four runs to take an 11-10 lead, and then shut the door on The Crew in the top of the 7th to win a very fast game 11-10.
There were some defensive highlights and almost highlights involving Mills. In the first inning he ran past Shawn to catch a fly ball in right field. He then had a chance for two separate assists at second. The first one had nobody covering the base. In an effort to make up for that, the second time both Tony and Joey covered the base with Tony catching the ball, but Joey was standing on the base. So close. As was the game that Storm held on to win 11-10.
- Duran achieved a perfect 1.000 AVG, 1.000 OBP, and a massive 2.500 OPS, powered by a double and a single.
- Lance delivered a 1.667 OPS, matching the team lead with a clutch double and scoring 1 run.
- Tony went a perfect 3-for-3 at the plate with 3 singles and 2 runs scored.
