David Asher (Mariners) and Hirotaka Egusa combined to toss three scoreless innings in relief of Lo, while Andrew Johnston (Rockies) was touched for a ninth-inning run.

Waikiki's offense erupted for three home runs in the fourth. San Francisco prospects Mark Minicozzi and Nate Schierholtz went back-to-back to start the frame, while Duke Sardinha (Rockies) contributed a two-out dinger.

North Shore (7-7) got on the board in the ninth frame, as Cleveland Indians farmhand Rodney Choy Foo singled to lead off the inning and scored on an RBI single by Los Angeles Dodgers prospect Cory Dunlap.

Mets prospect Robert Parnell (1-1) took the loss, allowing four runs on seven hits over four innings while striking out five. Ayumu Yamamoto, Satoshi Yamazaki and Blake Eager (Mets) combined on five innings of shutout relief.

The Sharks (7-9) scored all of their runs in the first two innings. Yoshiyuki Kamei, Van Pope (Atlanta Braves) and Brian Bixler (Pittsburgh Pirates) contributed two RBIs apiece.

The CaneFires (8-6) plated their lone run in the eighth when Texas farmhand John Whittleman doubled to lead off the frame and scored on a two-out single by Sean Kazmar (Padres).
