The Hartford Yard Goats faced a tough opponent in Richmond pitcher Nick Lapping, but still scratched out a win at The Diamond by a final score of 5-4 in 12 innings. Lapping went 7 innings and allowed 3 runs. Hartford reliever Mike Calabro got the win, raising his record to 3-2. Jason Cranford was tagged with the loss. The victory gives Hartford a record of 72-66.

Hartford used the timely hitting of Bobby Gardner to seize the win. The first baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the 12th inning to put the Yard Goats on top, 5-4. It was his only hit in 6 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

In postgame comments, Gardner said, "I think we gave the fans their money's worth."
