Empire Need Extra Innings to Top Lions, 7-5
The Kentucky Lions could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Kane Finzer into a win. Instead, the New York Empire prevailed, 7-5. Finzer threw 5.0 innings of 2-hit ball. New York has now won 3 in a row.

The decisive blow was delivered by Logan Nickerson in the bottom of the tenth when he hit a 2-run home run off 37-year old right-handed pitcher Benvenuto Coriolano to win the game for New York. The home crowd went nuts.

Said Nickerson: "What's not to like about a walk-off win?"
