The A's struck for two runs in the second inning. Brett O'Keefe led off with a single and advanced to second on an error. With two outs, Matt Asdornvuttikrai ripped a double off the wall to drive in the first run. Warren Asdornvuttikrai then got into a rundown after an infield popup, which allowed his brother Matt to scramble home for the second run of the game. The Cutters threatened in the 5th. Jeff Coveney, Dana Levensaler, and Steve Wigmore led off with three singles. Ryan Bere then hit a sacrifice fly to cut the lead in half. But Breidenstine escaped by striking out the next batter and inducing a groundout for the third out. In the 6th and the 7th, Breidenstine sat down the Cutters with back-to-back 1-2-3 innings to send the A's to the semis.

The Giants continue to keep pace with the Spinners, improving their record to 13-2 with a win over the Cutters. The Giants took a 3 run lead in the first and never looked back, as Phil Carignan held the Cutters to just a single unearned run over 6 innings. The Cutters offense was by no means anemic, posting 9 hits over those six innings, but a combination of 7 strikeouts from Carignan and 2 outfield assists from Tom Plumitallo and Jared Walsh was enough to hold them to just a single run. The Giants will look to pull away in the standings next week as they face off against the Spinners this Sunday and the As on Tuesday.
