The Pittsburgh Kingfishers and the Northern Virginia Rainbow Mermaids will take the ToC First Round to a decisive 5th game. In a must-win situation, the Kingfishers beat the Rainbow Mermaids, 5-3, at Pittsburgh Grounds to force the series into what will essentially be a one-game playoff. Pittsburgh left-hander Richard Miller had a big role in the win. He threw 7.0 innings allowing 3 runs.

Reynaldo Díaz hit a 2-run home run off Jorge Souza in the bottom of the first, which put the Kingfishers ahead, 2-0. In addition to the homer, Díaz had 1 double, while going 2 for 4.

"Postseason wins taste oh so sweet," said Miller after the game.

The next game is set to be played for Saturday, October 5th , 2058 at Atlantica in Hampton.
