St. Joseph Beaten, 4-2, by Little Rock
St. Joseph got a big-time effort from pitcher Jim Unknown, but it wasn't enough to keep the Little Rock Golden Gophers from winning the game, 4-2. Unknown threw 7.1 innings of shutout ball for the losing team. With the win, the Golden Gophers improved to 40-9.

The game was at a stalemate until designated hitter Chris Pinson came to bat in the top of the ninth. Facing St. Joseph pitcher Jim Unknown, he hit a 1-0 fastball for a 2-run single. It was a game-changer, putting Little Rock on top, 4-2.

Pinson called the win a test of his team's "mettle."
