Canterbury's beaten Wellington 3-2 in the final of the fast-pitch men's softball in Auckland.
When Campbell Makea hit a home run Wellington had looked on course for a double after the women upset Auckland 3-2 but Canterbury went ahead 2-1 in the bottom of the sixth inning.
Although Wellington equalised at the top of the seventh Canterbury loaded the bases then got the base hit they needed to avoid a tiebreaker.
