The Purple Cobras matched the early scoring of Docs as they also pushed across 3 runs in the first by way of a Mike Corrigan triple and a Jordan Roman double. They would follow that up by scoring 4 in the 2nd on five singles. The Cobras bats would also fall pray to the early morning sun as they did not score until the 6th inning when Ty Allen smoked a 2 rbi double and Jose Villa decimated the hopes and dreams of Docs with a 2 RBI triple helping to play 5 in the inning.

The Purple Cobras move onto the semi-finals winning 13-6.

In the 7th, sweet swingin' Tommy O'Neal crushed a 2 RBI double, helping plate 3 more all important runs.
