The Vancouver Canadians had to overcome a big game from Joplin designated hitter Willis Pierce to leave Stanley Park with a 6-5 victory. Pierce was 4 for 4 with 4 singles. Vancouver has a 7-game win streak, while Joplin has lost 4 in a row.

Horiuchi Rin was the walk-off hero for Vancouver. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Canadians second baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"One win at a time, one game at a time. We try not to get too far ahead of ourselves," Rin told the Vancouver News.
