In another close low scoring battle between these two teams, the Brewers were beaten once again by Mike Watters and sloppy Brewer play. Kanata starter Watters, cruised through the first 3 innings giving up just one hit. Brewers starter Serge Beaulieu also started well, giving up just 3 hits through the first 4 innings. Kanata did put one run on the board in the 2nd when Jeff Rawson doubled and Chad Hopewell hit an RBI single to score him.
The Brewers tied the game in the 4th when Matt Beelen singled and Frank Macera scored him with an infield single. In the 5th, the Brewers took the lead getting 3 straight hits with 2 out, highlited by RBI singles by Jon Zywicki and Matt Beelen making the score 3-1. Kanata answered right back capitalizing on Brewers mistakes to score 2 runs, 1 earned to tie the score.
The Brewers were unable to get any offense in the 6th and 7th and the game went into the bottom of the 7th tied at 3. With one out, Phil Muller hit a single to left but Jason Krottner threw Marcheterre out at home trying to score the winning run. Then after loading the bases, Beaulieu threw an 0-2 pitch in the dirt that Hank Beelen couldn't get a glove on and Watters trotted in with the winning run.
Player of the Game: I don't know, I missed last 4 innings...
