The Gulls came back in the bottom of the second with five runs of their own to take the lead 5-4. Endicott hit three doubles in the inning along with a sac fly from Cam Farnham.

Endicott added four more runs in both the fourth and the fifth and one more in the sixth on a Steve Morganelli homer for their 15 runs on 19 hits.
