DeSales scored once more in the sixth inning and eventually broke the game open in the ninth inning with five more runs as Hooker did the rest on the mound to finish off the complete game win. 

Hooker earned the win pitching nine innings allowing just two runs while scattering five hits and striking out four batters.

Rivera led the Bulldogs on the offense going 3-for-4 with two runs scored, two RBIs, and one home run. Anderosky went 2-for-5 with three RBIs and one run scored. Houck went 2-for-5 with two runs scored and one RBI.
