The Comets won 8–2 in Südfeld and swept the two games, and nobody had to stand up after the sixth.

Four runs in that innings, all with two out: Tamura singled, Okonjo walked, Ruane doubled to the wall in left, and Haverkamp blooped one into right that the Lanterns' second baseman chased until he ran out of field.

Whitaker threw seven and gave up one. The Lanterns' supporters, all eleven of them, were very decent about it and offered us the rest of their crisps on the way out.
