Josh Taylor took the loss (1-2) for the Rox as he threw the first six innings and allowed one earned run on six hits while striking out four before being relieved by Trevor Charpie to start the seventh inning. Charpie was relieved by Dalton Sawyer in the same inning and Chad Hockin tossed the ninth for the Rox as he and Sawyer allowed three runs in the final three innings with Sawyer striking out two.
Seven different Rox players tallied hits in the loss as Chris Paul finished 2-for-3 with two doubles, which gives him 15 on the season, and two walks. Craig also finished with two hits, including a double and the lone run scored for the Rox while Heck also doubled.
