Rayth Petersen picked up his third three-hit game of the year, going 3-for-5 with a pair of RBI. Petersen collected five hits over the two-game series.

Holland Townes entered in the top of the 9th inning, allowing two runs on a hit batter and two walks. Leo Giannoni allowed the last two runs in the 9th before recording the final out of the frame.

Cather Matt Flaherty, in an attempt to pick off the winning run at 3rd, threw the ball down the left field line to allow the winning run to score in Sudden Death. The Cutters fall to 1-4 in Sudden Death and 0-3 in the extra session against the Keys.
