Fremont would blow it open in the 3rd with five runs sparked by a Zane Skansi two-run shot that scored himself and Ben Higdon, then two straight bases-loaded walks, and finally a sac-fly by Tyler Harrington would make it 7-0.
A single by Jared Snyder scoring Austin Baskin, then another Harrington sac-fly put the Moo up 9-0.

That was started by a Snyder single that scored Boekhout, then a Kanin Dodge single scored Snyder, and a bases-loaded walk of Matt Spear scored Harrington. A two-run double by Baskin scored Dodge and Skansi, then a sac-fly by Samayoa scored Spear would be added on for the final score of 15-4.
