As for the opposition, Bob Brunker called the shots for the Schlitz with his 534 as they swept the competition. No Pinheads plummet 2 spots in the standings to 4th place, while the Schlitz moves 1 spot to 2nd.

Wilson and his amazing 647 series, the Empire collected 3 wins against 3 Pin Moon. Meanwhile, Adam Messner dominated 3 Pin Moon with his above-average 579 despite his team notching only a single win.
