Buffalo Bombers (56-35 .615 1 GA in 1st place in the Northern Division) at
Jacksonville Jays (61-29 .678 6.5 GA in 1st place in the Southern Division)

BUF: Doug Jones (27-R) (5-3 5.43 ERA 61.1 IP, 72 H, 6 HR, 26 BB, 40 SO)
JAX: Dale Gilchrist (25-R) (6-8 3.43 ERA 118 IP, 110 H, 11 HR, 39 BB, 68 SO)

Jones was 1-1 in 2 starts and 13.2 innings last year with a 3.29 ERA. We have never faced him before. We beat 3 straight All-Stars, so we will lose to the bum today.... Although, Jones is not a bum. He has pitched well everywhere before this season. His last start was a 5 hit shutout with 1 walk and 4 strikeouts.

Gilchrist pitched a CG win last time out, allowing 1 run on 6 hits, 1 home run and 2 walks with 5 strikeouts. His 2nd CG win in a row.
