In July. the Knights struggled and lost six of their first seven games. They had a strong finish to the month, however, winning 14 out of 18. The Luisville Beasts continued their surge and have taken the division lead. The Nashville Firecats plummeted as injuries took their toll. The Firecats appear to have conceded the division and began trading off players, including starting pitcher Broderick MacIlrevie. There were new division leaders in League 2 by the end of July. The Stade Maples overtook the Washington Allies while the Vancouver Wild surpassed the St. James Crusaders.
