Then in the ninth with two outs and nobody on base, the Cougars got even closer. Paramore and Steve Parker walked, and after Mike Spina was hit by a pitch, Dusty Napoleon walked to score Paramore for a 4-2 game. With the tying run at second, Thomas launched a high shot to right field that was grabbed on the warning track by Jon Edwards.
