In the bottom of the first in the opener, the Majors tripled on their second at-bat of the game, with the runner later scoring on a sacrifice fly to put Millsaps up 1-0. The middle innings belonged to both pitchers as neither offense could get much going with the Majors clinging to their 1-0 lead. In the ninth, the Colonels down to their final strike. Jamison Craig came through with a clutch base hit to tie the game. With the game now looking extra innings in the face, Aaron Lopez worked the count full and delivered another base hit to bring home pinch runner Carson Mire for the go-ahead run.
