The Houston Mavericks took on the Denver Cutthroats at Cutter's Cove.

Boosted by the 2-hit performance of Josh Ball, who is tied for 5th in the PBC in home runs with 14, the Houston Mavericks defeated the Denver Cutthroats, 6-1. The winning pitcher was Steve Yates. He tossed 90 pitches over 5.2 innings, allowing no runs on 4 hits. Toshifumi Sato picked up the save, his 1st.

Ball had a key at-bat for Houston in the top of the second. With a runner on 1st, he hit a 2-run home run. It was his 14th home run of the season and gave Houston an early 2-0 lead.

Ball called the win "a pick-me-upper."

The 4th-place Mavericks hiked their record to 30-25.
