Just after midnight, the Jupiter Hammerheads pull out a 2 – 1, 23-inning win over the Clearwater Threshers. After failing to score against two Clearwater position players, Jupiter gets a run in the 23rd off Clearwater closer Justin Friend, who entered the game with a 0.86 ERA and a minor league-leading 16 saves. Backup 3B Jose Duarte singles in the winner. Jiwan James reaches base five times and falls a homer shy of the cycle in a losing cause, while SS Jeff Dominguez goes 0 for 9 for Jupiter. The teams finish six innings shy of the Florida State League record, set 45 years earlier.
