A win in the two reverse doubles kept the Titans in the game as they tied the match at 7-7 to force a deciding game.
Magic 8-Ball, who started the season at fourth place, kept their composure and played more focused in the deciding doubles match to secure the win that hiked their record to 29-17 against the Titans’ 27-18 slate.
Route33 Armatech Hustlers and Jokers Homeboyz also downed separate foes to remain within striking distance of the leaders.
The Hustlers trounced National Alamo Car Rental, 10-5, while the Homeboyz completed a 9-6 decision over Wild Bill’s Wild Wild West.
Rout 33 Armatech now holds a 25-20 record trailing Smoke Pub and Poseidon by four and two wins, respectively. The Homeboyz’ are at fourth with a 24-21 slate.
National Alamo Car Rental dropped to fifth with 22-23, while Wild Bill’s is tied with the Barcode Breakers at sixth to seventh spots with similar 20-25 cards.
Jonny’s Team SCS, which suffered a 10-5 demolition at the hands of the Barcode Breakers, remained at the cellar with a 13-32 card.
In the six-team Tuesday League, the Jokers IT&E Voyagers coasted to a 12-3 demolition of the Jonny’s Crazy 8s (22-23) to hold a slim one-win edge over sister team Str8 Shooters.
The Voyagers hold a 31-14 mark, while the Shooters is one game behind at 30-15, followed closely by the 27-18 mark of Saipan TV Hustlers, which completed a 14-1 crushing of the hapless Smoke Pub Sang&D’Gang (14-31).
