| Sting Lose, 4-1, at The drakkar | The Victoria Vikings beat the Houston Sting, 4-1, at The drakkar. The win was largely due to the efforts of first baseman Johnny Sachs, who captured player of the game honors. He was 2-2 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Timmo van Bladel earned the win for Victoria. He lasted 8 innings, allowing 1 earned run on 6 hits, while striking out 9. With the win, he raised his record to 8-2. Luis Madrid notched his 14th save in 17 chances.
Sachs had an important at-bat with a runner on 2nd in the bottom of the sixth, when he hit a 2-run home run. The Vikings went on to win.
"We take it day by day here," said Sachs, "and today was a good one for us."
Victoria is now 59-40, 4½ games up in the TMLA Earl Weaver Division.
