Javier Colina got the inning going with a double and then Anderson Machado decided to follow Votto's act with a two run shot of his own. The Lookouts iced the game with a run in the sixth when Machado tripled to score Asadoorian from first, who had singled with two outs.
The Biscuits only run came in the second inning. Christianson led the inning off with a double and came around to score on another double by Pridie.
