Tied 2-2 in the fifth inning Quebec used two New Jersey errors and three base hits to take a 4-2 lead on their way to a 7-3 road win. Michel Simard allowed nine hits but minimized the damage as he surrendered just three runs over eight innings. He improved to 2-0 on the season with the win. In the seventh inning the Capitales were heavily aided by Jackals pitching as New Jersey control problems led to four bases on balls, a passed ball, and a hit batter in the frame. Quebec took full advantage and mixed in a single and two steals to push across three runs. The top of the Quebec order finished 7-for-11 with four runs scored and four RBI.
