In the 5th they got two more runs on a sac fly from Aplin and a Moran RBI double. Brignac added an RBI single in the 6th to make it 7-4.

Hooks got on the board first with a Singleton RBI double in the first inning. In the 3rd, Singleton added an RBI single to make it 2-0. Midland put up 3 runs on Emanuel in the 6th inning to take a 3-2 lead. In the bottom of the 7th, the Hooks rallied back tying the game on a Muniz solo HR.
