Angel Molina stepped in next and hit a sac fly to score Mottram and put Pittsfield up 4-0.

The hit parade continued in the inning as Peter Fatse was hit by a pitch and Chris Torres followed with a ground rule double to move Fatse to third. Scott Knazek came up and hit a sacrifice fly to right to score Fatse and move Torres to third.

Three more runs came in the fourth to push the advantage to nine. After Quebec scored a run on an RBI groundout in the fifth, Pittsfield got the run back in the bottom of the inning on Edmondson's fifth homer of the season to stretch the Colonials lead to 10-1.
