Zach Stolze scored on a one-out balk to tie the game and Scooter SanFilippo scored on a double to left-center by Brady Wozniak to give the Shoremen a one-run lead. With two outs, Will Turner socked a three-run homer to left that scored Matt O'Connor and Matt Lewis to cap the five-run frame.
- The Owls got two back on a two-run longball to left-center with nobody out to cut the deficit to 5-3.
