Downs Better Hitmakers, 5-4
Phoenix registered a win at The Ashes by beating the Motown Hitmakers, 5-4. Pitcher Juan Orosco was one reason why the Downs triumphed. Orosco, now 1-0, was the winner. In 6.1 innings, he gave up 6 hits, while striking out 7, walking 1, and allowing 2 runs. The Hitmakers fall to 11-19 and continue their unimpressive start to the 2069 season.

Making an impact for the home team was Carlos Beltran. In the bottom of the fifth, the 36-year old left fielder had a run-scoring ground out. That made the score 5-1, Downs.

Phoenix manager Damian Larson praised his team's "energy."
