He followed it up with an RBI double off the wall in center during the fifth, making it 4-1. Josh Maciejewski (2-0) earned the win after 1.1 scoreless relief innings and Dax Fulton (1-2) took the loss. Justin Yeager also picked up his fifth save of the season with 1.2 perfect innings and two strikeouts. Brock Wilken (2-for-3) recorded the Shuckers' lone multi-hit performance.

In game two, Pensacola struck first again, this time on an RBI double from Jake Thompson in the top of the first inning. The Shuckers again struck back with three in the second off an RBI infield single from Jeremy Vargas and a two-RBI double from Luke Adams. In the fourth, Adam struck again with an RBI double, making it 4-1. The lead extended to 5-1 in the fifth with a sacrifice fly from Ramón Rodríguez. In the sixth, back-to-back home runs from Nathan Martorella, a two-run shot, and Josh Zamora, a solo shot, made it 5-4. The Shuckers responded in the bottom half with an RBI fielder's choice from Cooper Pratt and a sacrifice fly to right from Brock Wilken. Alexander Cornielle (2-0) earned the win after allowing three runs over 5.2 innings. Adam Laskey (2-1) took the loss.
