Nathan Panther scored the winning run for the Captains (24-12) in the fourth inning on a single up the middle by Matt Knox. Carlos De La Cruz (3) notched his third save retiring all six Intimidators batters he faced.

The loss spoiled a solid outing for Intimidators starter Paulino Reynoso (2-3), who gave the Intimidators six innings holding the Captains to one run on two hits and striking out five.
