The Baysox used a two-run rally in the second inning to grab the lead. Jaylen Ferguson doubled down the left field line, stole third and scored on a Doran Turchin RBI-double to give Bowie the lead. Turchin them stole third and scored on a groundout by Chris Hudgins with the infield remaining back.

The 2-0 lead would hold until then top of the ninth inning. That's when Hudgins provided needed insurance. A two-run home run to left field doubled the lead to make it 4-0. Richmond would score two runs in the ninth inning but it wasn't enough.
