The Dutchmasters came from behind on Saturday with a 6 to 5 win. Dutchmaster Charles Cambridge had the game winning hit in the bottom of the 9th. Yesterday at Meijer Field in St Joseph, The Royal Giants started the scoring in the first with 2 runs as Tom Wolken was at the plate. The Dutchmasters went into the lead in the top of the third when Josh Krumwiede singled, scoring one run, and Ty Cribbett doubled, scoring two runs.

The Dutchmasters took the lead back in the top of the 4th inning on a fielder's choice by Drake Schrodt and a double by Tanner Tompkins. League MVP Tom Wolken homered for the Giants in the bottom of the 6th. That cut the Buckley lead down to one. The Dutchmasters scored 4 more times to take the championship 10 to 5.
