London Edges Madrid in Extra Innings
The Madrid Matadors got a superb performance from pitcher Petenka Rabdanov, but the London Knights still won the game, 4-3. Rabdanov threw 9.1 innings of 8-hit ball. London is 58-77 and Madrid, with the loss, 67-68.

The Knights got a clutch hit from center fielder Zülfü Gürler. In the bottom of the 11th, he delivered a run-scoring single to win the game for the Knights.

"This game had its share of tense moments," Gürler said, postgame.
