Mafia Beaten By Monsters, 6-2
Due in large part to third baseman Byron Ward, the Mobile Monsters sunk the Sicily Mafia, 6-2. Ward was 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 3 runs. The first-place Monsters have a one-game lead in their division.

Mobile shortstop Jon Olson helped the Monsters go up, 3-2, in the top of the sixth inning. With the game tied, Olson hit a run-scoring single off Sicily pitcher Pippo Ammanati.

Ward attributed the win to "everyone pulling their weight."
