After back-to-back hits by Oswill Lartiguez and Alejandro Juvier and an error in the outfield put runners at second and third, Cedric Mullins grounded a ball to second base. Jesus Lopez fielded it cleanly, but his throw was off target allowing a run to score. Ricardo Andujar followed with a similar ground ball, but this time Lopez booted it and allowed two more runs to score, making it 4-3.

Lead The Way

Aberdeen kept the momentum going in the seventh with two more runs, giving them their first lead. A walk to Drew Turbin and three hits in a row from Lartiguez, Juiver, and Mullins produced the two runs.

Lots of Insurance

The IronBirds score three more in the eighth to make it, 8-4. Mike Odenwaelder scored on a wild pitch and Oswill Lartiguez drove in a pair with an automatic double over the wall down the right field wall.
