Jones walked to reload the bases for Dean Green. Green hit into a 1-2-3 double play, failing to bring home a run. James Robbins then lined a single to center, plating the game tying runs.

The Sea Dogs jumped right back ahead in the last of the third. With two on and two outs, Lawley blasted a three-run home run over the scoreboard in left-center for a 6-3 lead.

Erie got one back in the fourth when Connor Harrell connected on an opposite-field home run, his fifth, making it a 6-4 game. The 'Wolves would get no closer.
