Clearwater broke the scoreless tie in the bottom of the fifth against Dunedin starter Turner Larkins. With one out, Danny Mayer stepped in and drilled a homerun to left to give the Threshers the lead. Dalton Guthrie then singled and scored on Jake Scheiner's RBI double to the corner in left. Two hitters later, Alec Bohm served a groundball single through the hole on the right side that allowed Scheiner to score to bring the score to its' final.

Brito, Demi Orimoloye, and Logan Warmoth were the only offensive players for the Blue Jays to register to a base knock in the game.
