Porters Ballpark was the site for Federation League action featuring the Dublin Porters and Kyiv Cossacks.

Kyiv third baseman Steve Buffington was a significant contributor in his team's 9-4 triumph over the Dublin Porters. He went 3-5 with a home run and a double. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Cossacks. Kyiv is now 90-69, 6½ games up in the Federation League Knuckleheads Division.

With Kyiv leading 6-1 in the top of the ninth, Buffington came up to bat against Dublin pitcher Chris Gills. Buffington hit a fastball to left for a 3-run home run. His 15th home run of the season put the Cossacks on top, 9-1.

"Every time you put a 'W' on the board is always good," said Buffington.
