Skyliners Over Aurora, 6-2
Iceland got a valiant performance from pitcher Jim Meagher, but it wasn't enough to beat the New York Skyliners. New York won the game, 6-2. Meagher threw 8.0 innings of 5-hit ball for the losing team. The winning pitcher was two-time Gold Glove Award winner Matt Heydt. He tossed 111 pitches over 6.1 innings, allowing 2 runs on 4 hits. Juan Flores earned the save, his 3rd.

New York used the hitting of Joe Brewer to pick up the win. The third baseman clubbed a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Skyliners on top, 4-2. For the game, Brewer had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

Brewer called the win "a lesson in teamwork."

New York is now 21-11, while Iceland is 17-15.
