Alejandro García propelled his team to victory over the Tauranga Taniwha. The final score was 4-1, Melbourne. In 5 innings, García surrendered 4 hits, while striking out 2 and walking 4. He allowed no runs. The Bitters move to 27-31 with the win, while the Taniwha drop to 29-29.

Melbourne used a big swing from Doug Hatfield to get the win. The shortstop walloped a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Bitters up, 4-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it changed the outcome.

"I was just taking it batter by batter, just enjoying the moment," said García.
