Several other Atlantic City hitters turned in good games, including RF Josh Burrus who was 3-for-6 with a home run, two runs scored and two RBI. Entering the sixth inning, the Surf held an 11-2 lead and appeared to have the game in hand. But by the ninth, the Jackals had cut that lead to 11-8 and it looked as if they might pull off a miracle. It was not to be, though, as the Surf picked up an insurance run in the ninth and went on to win 12-8.
