History was made on July 18, 1999 at Koblerville Field in a game between Koror Bombers and Peleliu. With no out and a runner on 1st and 2nd bases, Norman Mobel hit a sharp grounder to short stopper Mel Sakisat, who caught the ball, tagged runner Chanley Kenty on his way to 3rd, then stepped on 2nd base for the 2nd out threw to first for the 3rd and final out of the inning and a triple-play. Koror Bombers went on to win the game 11-8. Tom Torres highlighted Bombers offense with a 3 run homer.
Warriors 7, Koror Tiger 0

The rain tamed the Tigers as they failed to field enough players allowing Warriors to register a 7-0 win.
Fadang 7, Spec 0

In a rare occurrence in Palau League, Spec had only 9 players dress-up for the game. After 3 regular innings they led 2-0, but failed to come up with 10th players and had to settle for 0-7 loss.

Jeff Cabrera led the offense going 2 for 2 with 2 homes and 4 RBI’s; Arthur Moses went 2 for 2 and scoring 2 runs, and Ben Mesa 3 for 4 with a homer and a double while diving in 3 to lead Comets to a 5 inning 10-0 mercy rule victory over Outrigger. Ben Hocog went 2 for 2 in the losing effort.
