The Empires got a big at-bat from right fielder Paul Brower. For the game, Brower went 1 for 4 with a double. He drove in 3 runs. In the bottom of the sixth, with the bases loaded, he stroked a bases-clearing double. His 8th double of the season gave New York a 3-0 lead.

"I had everything working," said Pierce.
