The Herndon Braves (6-21) and the Alexandria Aces (16-10) both threatened with rallies, but it was the Herndon Braves that eventually took advantage of them in a 2-1 win at Frank Mann Field.

The fact that the Herndon Braves grouped all of their runs into the first inning helped them take advantage of their hits.

Jonathan Harasin picked up the win for the Herndon Braves. Harasin pitched seven innings and allowed one earned run, five hits and one walk while striking out three.

Mitchell Aker was charged with his second loss of the year. He lasted just five innings, walked three, struck out two, and allowed two runs.
