Manager Ryan Stevens said, "We have to limit the free passes in the game and we walked too many guys again and they hurt us because of it." The Potters also left 11 men on base during the game. "We had chances to score but we didn't come through, we've got to look to just stay up the middle not hit the homerun all the time." The Potters fall to 24-18 and the Rogues improve to 24-19 but still trail by half a game for 2nd place in the Great West League.
