In the final the Prospects jumped out to a 4-0 lead against Binghamton but a costly error in the outfield allowed the New York team back into the game as they plated 3 runs in the 4th. The Wellanders got 1 back in the 5th but Binghamton had been given a new life and they tied the game and then pushed across another run to take the lead by 2 into the 7th. The Prospects were unable to cash in runners in the 6th and 7th taking it on the chin 7-5 to come second in the tournament. Welland’s Matt Spillman led the Prospects at the plate with 2 triples and a single. Spillman ended the weekend with 4 triples, 2 doubles and a single.
