Death Stars Win Thriller, 6-5
Joplin got a terrific performance from second baseman Hiroya Kuroki, but it wasn't enough to beat the Detroit Death Stars. Detroit won the The Death Star contest, 6-5. Kuroki was the player of the game despite being on the losing side. He went 3-5 with a triple and 2 singles, while scoring 2 times. The Death Stars bumped their record to 17-16 with this latest triumph.

Detroit won the game in the bottom of the tenth inning. With no outs and Tomoyuki Kiyomizu on the mound for Joplin, catcher Kevin Rivière hit a dramatic solo home run, bringing Death Stars fans to their feet.

"This joint was rocking," said Rivière.
