Fog Down Tradesmen, 6-4
Zak Gardner, who is tied for 5th in the BFE&W in strikeouts with 133, was locked in. The right-hander led the London Fog to a 6-4 win against the Birmingham Tradesmen at Tradesmen Grounds. London has a record of 95-36, placing them first in the Baseball Federation of England & Wales English Baseball Championship.

London took a 5-3 lead on Ashley Brace's 28th home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Brace hit in the top of the seventh, left Birmingham pitcher Cástico Reyna visibly frustrated.

"Zak gave us a very blue collar effort," said London manager Harry Deane.
