Buffalo answered back in the top of the second following a Spencer Jones solo home run in the bottom of the first inning. Charles McAdoo led off the top of the second and scored with two out. Back-to-back base hits with two out against Danny Watson evened the game 1-1. Carlos Mendoza was followed by a Je'Von Ward RBI base hit for his first career Triple-A run driven in.

Jones added his second home run of the game later in the inning. His two-out grand slam was his second multi-home run game of the series and made the lead 7-1 in favor of Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
