Lumber Company was defeated 11-10 by D'Arcy in their first round game in the Joliet City Tournament's Open division. In true rivalry fashion this game was back an forth the entire way. Lumber Company took the early 1-0 lead in the top off one keyed by a M.Wallace RBI single with 2 outs. However D'Arcy answered right back with 1 of their own in the bottom of the first. After shutting the Lumber Co. down in the second D'Arcy scored 5 more times to go up 6-1. After a scoreless third and forth inning Lumber Co. plated 6 runs with 2 outs in the 5th to take a 7-6 lead.

Lumber Co. came right back in the top of the 6th scoring two runs on a B.Munday double to knot the game up at 9. D'Arcy again answered with a run in the bottom of the 6th to take a 10-9 lead putting the pressure on the LoCo to score in the 7th. With 2 outs in the top of the 7th J.Filas singled and then scored on an E.Boe RBI double, tying the game a 10. But it would not be the Loco's night as D'Arcy was able to push across 1 run in the bottom of the 7th to win the game by a final score of 11-10.
