- It was quite the productive day in the Challenge as seven out of ten participants scored.
- Oddly enough, all of the blanks came from the same game whose names together would make you think that the players were looking out for their backers. Nevertheless, Guardians/Angels saw Buddy left upstream with Mike Trout and two O names become 0 names with Oscar Mercado (Matt) and Owen Miller (Scott).
- The prior day's top scorer Andrew Vaughn was the lone double-selected player on the day netting Joseph and Ryan a single in Chicago's extra innings loss to the Royals.
- While our pair of Guardians teammates were in lockstep in a bad way, the two Cardinals taken were a bit better as Nolan Arenado and Tommy Edman each singled twice for Nate and Al respectively.
- In that same game, Daulton Varsho left five people on base for the defeated Diamondbacks but slapped a sixth inning single to get Colin on the board for the day.
- The day's only double came from Lenny's pick Chas McCormick who would score the shutout breaking run after his seventh inning two-bagger against the Rangers.
- But once again proving that sometimes you let fate take the wheel was Pavli with his second Break Glass List assignee Aaron Judge. Judge had himself a delightful meal of cycle bread in New York's doubling up of the Orioles for five total bases and a recouping of the overall lead.
- Optimally, Austin Hays' side may have been beaten on the day, but his three doubles and a single put him in the catbird seat in the Pick One with seven total bases.
