Josh Lee added a RBI-double in the second frame and Drew Fann knocked in Connor Harrell, who also doubled, with a double of his own.

Tyler Beede and Kevin Ziomek each worked clean innings and Steven Rice worked out of a jam with a pair of strikeouts in his lone inning. Robert Hansen fanned two in his inning and Philip Pfeifer worked around a Tony Kemp single to keep the Gold team off the board in the final inning.
