California 14 - San Fernando 1
The Crusaders hit a pair of 3-run homeruns in the 6th inning en route to putting up a 9 spot in the inning to make this a FUBAR victory. David Simpson and Cesar Feliciano hit the two bombs, giving Simpson 27 on the season and Felicano 13. Simpson ended the evening with 3 RBI while Felicano had 4. Jorge Lugo also homered in the contest and drove in 3. Clinton Womack allowed both of the 3-run homers in that 6th inning. Womack lasted just 1 out while allowing 6 runs on 4 hits and a couple of walks. His ERA ballooned to 6.98 with the bad inning.

Charm City 12 - Charlotte 1
When the Cougars handed the ball to Jose Rivas in the 8th inning, the last thing on their mind was a FUBAR loss. Perhaps they thought they could still win the game, trailing 5-1 at the time. Rivas got them out of the 8th so the club let him go back out for the 9th. Big mistake! With 2 outs in the inning, Pedro Rivas hit a grand slam! This coming after Rivas had walked 4 consecutive batters to force in a run. He got the leadoff man in the inning and then got the next batter after the walk so it was still 6-1 with 2 outs. A single by Tomas Guillen made it 7-1. Still 2 outs. A walk to Quinten Lara made it 8-1. Still 2 outs. Then Rivas went to work with a grand slam on a 1-1 count. The rest is FUBAR history! Charm City joins the list of FUBAR winners, leaving only 5 teams in the BBA without a FUBAR win, including the Cougars.

Las Vegas 13 - Jacksovnille 2
Manoell Whanon hit a pair of homeruns in the game as he went 2-3 with 3 runs scored, 3 RBI, and he added a pair of walks. The Italian also homered. All 3 of those blasts came off of Abel van Gastel who allowed 5 runs on 8 hits in just 2 innings. But the big inning came in the 5th inning when the Hustlers scored 7 times thanks to 6 runs allowed by Sandro Plumey. Those 6 runs were scored on 4 hits and 6 WALKS! Plumey, making only his 5th appearance of the season, saw his ERA sky rocket to 14.04 on the season with the bad frame.
Nashville 14 - Vancouver 2
The last two teams to appear in the feature are starting to make up for lost time as Nashville goes to 2-0 now and Vancouver picks up their 3rd FUBAR decision. Kidane Ata hit a 3-run homerun as part of a 7-run 3rd inning for the Bluebirds while Tony Frost hit his 7th and 8th homeruns of the season while driving in 5 RBI. Gustavo Hernandez allowed 7 runs on just 4 hits in the start, but lasted only 1.1 innings. He walked 2. Jose Ramirez allowed 10 hits in 4 innings of work which led to 4 more Nashville runs.
