Salt Lake rallied from an early deficit to edge Oklahoma City, 3-2, on Saturday night. The Comets struck first in the opening frame, but the Bees answered in the third on an RBI single by Niko Kavadas. Chad Wallach gave Salt Lake the lead with a solo homer in the fifth, and Chad Stevens added a sixth-inning sacrifice fly. Victor Mederos tossed seven strong innings, allowing just one run.

WP: Ronan Kopp (1 - 1) LP: Brett Kerry (4 - 7) SV: José Rodríguez (2)

The Comets outlasted the Bees in a back-and-forth slugfest, 12-10. Max Muncy started the scoring with a solo homer in the first, and after Salt Lake briefly took a 4-2 lead in the second--highlighted by Nelson Rada's bases-clearing single in his Triple-A debut--Oklahoma City quickly responded. CJ Alexander's RBI double helped the Comets retake the lead, and after a fifth-inning tie, the Comets pulled away with a four-run frame capped by Chuckie Robinson's three-run homer. Salt Lake rallied late, trimming the deficit to 12-10 in the ninth behind Chad Stevens' two-run homer and Sebastian Rivero's RBI double, but the comeback fell short as Yolmer Sánchez flew out to end the game.
