Game One 
Stars 6, Huskies 5

First baseman Carlos Santana had 2 base hits as the Northwest Stars topped the Northeast Huskies by a score of 6 to 5 at Huskie Park.

Northwest took the lead off Adam Wainwright in the first inning scoring one runner. After two outs Jason Heyward single-handedly provided the offense with a solo home run. Adam Jones was next to bat, but he was a strikeout victim.  Northeast made it exciting in the 9th, but they were unable to push the needed runs across. 

Madison Bumgarner (3-0) allowed 2 runs in 5 innings, and picked up the victory. Rafael Soriano earned the save, his 1st. Wainwright (2-1) was charged with the loss. He pitched 7 1/3 innings allowing 5 hits and 3 walks.
