Battle Creek relief pitcher R.J. Hively (Cal St. Fullerton) put out a Waterloo rally with a strikeout to end the eighth and then fanned the side in the ninth for the save in Waterloo. Hively actually had five strikeouts as he struck out the first Buck he faced in the eigth inning but the batter reached on an errant throw to first base with the pitch being in the dirt.

Alexandria's Chase Porch (North Alabama) was four outs away from pitching a no-hitter at St. Cloud on Saturday.
