Kyle Mertins (Santa Ana) looked stellar in his second start of the season. Mertins worked 7.0 strong innings, allowing only four hits and no runs while striking out six and walking one. The victory improved Mertins record to 1-0 on the season.

Jeff Cowan (High Point) was the only 'Chuck without a hit, but Cowan extended his on-base streak to 17 games with a first inning walk. Brent Weaver (Oklahoma City) continued his hot hitting going 2 for 5 with a pair of doubles, an RBI, and a run scored. Kyle Bubak (Salt Lake CC) added two more hits and scored a couple of runs, while Geoff Klein (Santa Clara) also socked two hits in just his second game as a Woodchuck.

Picking up the loss was Green Bay starter Tim Jolly, dropping his record to 2-2.
