Humpbacks Pull Off Thrilling 5-3 Win in Extras
Nashville got a terrific performance from pitcher John McGrath, but it wasn't enough to beat the Alaskan Humpbacks. Alaskan won the Hot Chickens Park contest, 5-3. McGrath threw 7.0 innings of 6-hit ball for the losing team. David Davidson closed out the game, earning his 1st save. Alaskan, now 56-27, holds down first place in the Silver AAA.

Alaskan used the timely hitting of Tom Connelly to seize the win. The pinch hitter stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the 11th inning to put the Humpbacks on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

Alaskan manager Alfonso Vera praised his team's "businesslike approach."
