The Tourists scored again in the fourth. The one run of the frame came from Chad Stevens' RBI single.

Asheville's offense didn't stop there. Will Wagner was given first and shifted Stevens home, then Colin Barber batted in Cristian Gonzalez. Micheal Sandle found the dish off the bat of Zach Daniels.

The Dive chipped away at the lead in the eighth inning by Nicholas Northcut's RBI double that brought Tyler McDonough and Ceddanne Rafaela home.

The Tourists added four insurance runs in the eighth, but Greenville gave one last effort in the ninth by Ceddanne Rafaela bringing Nick York and McDonough home.
