Anderson pitched 6.0 one-run innings for his first Triple-A win, and LaMarre's fifth-inning three-run double was the difference.

Scoring Recap: The RailRiders got their only run of the game in the first on a two-out RBI double off the wall in center from Ryan McBroom. The 1-0 lead held up until the fifth, when LaMarre crushed a bases-loaded three-run double to left for a 3-1 lead and eventual final.
