Final Score:..............North York Astros...........3.............London City...........1.............

Attendance was about 30 people on this cool evening for this rescheduled game. The field had as many bald patches as Crosby Field last night but because there was no rain, the dirt parts were just dusty not muddy.

Astros dominated most of the first half. London City played about even with the Astros in the second half.
