A rain-out and a day off led to a 1-1 day.  Dunedin won with ten runs but three of the runs scored on bases-loaded walks, two on bases-loaded hit batters and two on wild pitches.  New Hampshire were blasted, they had one hit and gave up ten runs.

Robert Ray gave up back-to-back jacks in the first inning to trail 2-0.  Ray allowed another run in the fourth before giving up two more runs in the sixth.  Dunedin took the lead 4-2 in the second on two hits followed by two walks, a hit batter and a two run RBI single from Adam Calderone.  Dunedin added two more in the fourth, one on a wild pitch and the other on a single from Brad Emaus. Putting that together Dunedin had a 6-5 lead after 7.  Dunedin scored three in the eighth in an inning similar to the second.  Two runs scored on bases loaded walks and one on a hit batter, Dunedin now led 9-5.  Dunedin added another run in the ninth, JP Arencibia doubled and scored, fittingly, on a wild pitch.

Armando Benitez pitched two shutout innings. 

The Jays had eight hits, Arencibia and Lane had two hits, and scored two runs, each.
