Demons Take Nail-Biter Over Sea Eagles
Manly-Warringah got a terrific performance from pitcher Shell Grogan, but it wasn't enough to beat the Melbourne Demons. Melbourne won the Punt Road Park contest, 3-2. Grogan threw 8.0 innings of 6-hit ball for the losing team. The win belongs to Norm Riethmuller in relief. His record improves to 3-1. Phil Botterill took the loss for Manly-Warringah. The Demons go to 19-32 with the win.

Melbourne won the game in the bottom of the 14th inning. With one out and Phil Botterill on the mound for Manly-Warringah, first baseman Luke Kelly hit a dramatic solo home run, bringing Demons fans to their feet.

In postgame comments to the Melbourne Times, Kelly said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
