AMSTERDAM / HAARLEM / VLEUTEN ROTTERDAM (Neth.) - On a rainy Thursday-evening, three games started, two were interrupted by rain, but completed, one was halted and one never started.

Four days after qualifying for the European Cup Final Four, league-leader L&D Amsterdam Pirates won big 15-2 vs. AamigoO ADO Lakers on 15 basehits. The reigning champion opened the score with three runs in the first at bat, then added a run in the next at bat and three more in the fourth when Wesley Connor hit a 3-run homerun. In the meantime, ADO Lakers had scored a run in the third and fourth at bat. Pirates then struck with eight runs in the fifth inning off of new pitcher Rick van der Post, who had taken over in the previous at bat. Van der Post walked three batters, hit two and gave up five basehits, but he also registered two strikeouts, but coming against Wesley Connor, who singled, doubled and homered in his first three at bats. In the bottom of the second inning, the game was delayed by rain for 34 minutes, but then could be completed thereafter. Amsterdam Pirates committed two errors tonight for the first time since May 3.
