- Matt Foster recorded the save after Orlando González earned the win, while Luis Payán took the loss for the Charros.
- The result came a day after Jalisco’s 3-2 extra-innings win in which Tomohiro Anraku notched his first victory and Gerardo Reyes his first save of the season.
- With the series level at one win each, a deciding matchup was scheduled at Estadio Fernando Valenzuela.
- League-wide reports conflicted on other outcomes, with AP versions disagreeing on whether Tomateros beat the Yaquis for a sixth straight win or the Yaquis ended that streak, and some accounts listing differing Hermosillo scorelines and Bowens’ stats.
