Derrick Edington came in for the eighth and worked around a single. In the bottom of the inning, Isaac came up with two outs and nobody on base. The 21-year-old clubbed a solo shot out to left, his eighth blast of the season to make it 1-0.

With runners on the corners and two outs in the ninth, JJ Goss entered to get the final out for his ninth save.
