With one out in the bottom of the third inning, Dairon Blanco hit a solo home run to extend Omaha's lead. An inning later, the Storm Chasers added three more runs to take a 10-1 lead.

In the top of the fifth inning, Michael Chavis hit a two-run homer over the left field wall but it wasn't enough as the Storm Chasers went on to score two more runs in the bottom of the eighth inning and seal the lead at 12-3.
