Machine Get Clutch Win Versus Syracuse
Syracuse got a terrific game from left fielder Matt Dunham. It wasn't enough, though, to prevent the team from falling to Montreal, 7-6. Dunham went 2-4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 2 runs. The win belonged to Glenn Lortkipanidze in relief. His record improves to 1-5. Nick O'Day took the loss for Syracuse. The win makes Montreal 47-53.

Melvin Williams was the walk-off hero for Montreal. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Machine third baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

Williams described the clubhouse as "kind of rowdy" after the game.
