The primetime contest, set for 5 p.m. ET on ESPN, revives a semifinal clash from the inaugural 2025 season, where Atlanta prevailed 9-3 to advance to the title.

Chris Gotterup steps in as a substitute after contributing to the win against New York. For The Bay, the lineup features Shane Lowry, Ludvig Aberg and Wyndham Clark, with Min Woo Lee rounding out the full-time roster of Wyndham Clark, Shane Lowry, Ludvig Aberg and Min Woo Lee.
