Aurora Win with Late Rally
The Iceland Aurora and New York Skyliners needed extra innings at Aurora Field to determine a winner.

The New York Skyliners could not turn a fine performance from second baseman Mike O'Shea into a win. Instead, the Iceland Aurora prevailed, 4-3, in 12 innings. O'Shea was 4-6 with 4 singles. He scored 2 times. Iceland reliever John Gladue got the win, raising his record to 2-0. Mike Butler was tagged with the loss.

The Aurora got a clutch hit from third baseman Huibert van Duren. In the bottom of the 12th, he delivered a run-scoring single to win the game for the Aurora.

"This was a good win," said van Duren.

After today's action, Iceland sits at 39-36, while New York falls to 43-32.
