The Gotham Heroes came out on losing end of a 8 to 5 score and Connolly absorbed the loss dropping his AAA league record with Gotham to 9-7. During the game, Connolly pitched 2 innings allowing 5 runs on 6 hits while walking 3 and striking out 1. Out of his 60 pitches thrown, 34 of those pitches were for strikes.
