After an exciting third day of baseball in the Federation Cup in Slovakia, the following slate of games produced a four-way tie for first place. Stal Kutno earned an impressive win for Polish baseball, setting down previously undefeated Vålerenga, while the Sofia Blues eliminated Herts Toucans, one of very British teams to ever play in the middle rungs of European club baseball.
