Scott Veals was the offensive leader again with 4 singles in 5 at bats. Dan Annis and Jeff Bartlett contributed contributed 2 singles in each while Scott Munro, Mike Gallant, and Mike Lugtenburg added 1 single each.

Dan Annis had a busy afternoon afternoon on the bases, striking for 2 singles and drawing 2 walks which set the speedster up for 4 runs.

Kevin Smith recorded a triple and a single; while Scott Munro stroked 2 singles, and Mike Gallant, Jeff Bartlett, Mike Smith and Tim Smith each added a single of their own. A strong performance by Mike Gallant in position No. 1 gave Bowmanville the edge. Mike hurled six and two-thirds innings allowing 6 earned runs on 9 hits and 2 walks. Chris Hall relieved Mike and earned the save the hard way. He was the victim of Port Hope's 3rd home-run of the game which narrowed the gap to 4 runs, Chris allowed 3 hits in all plus 1 walk and 1 strike-out in one and one-third innings.
