Ullola induced three-consecutive groundouts in the first to toss a 1-2-3 frame and went six up, six down by firing a clean bottom of the second. In the third, Ullola stranded a runner in scoring position with one out with a strikeout and a groundout.

Sugar Land threatened in the top of the fourth as Logan Davidson and Shay Whitcomb reached with two outs, but an inning-ending punchout left them on base. Iowa also put two men on in the bottom of the fourth, but Ullola retired three-straight batters to send the game scoreless into the fifth.

The Space Cowboys loaded the bases in the top of the fifth as Collin Price singled and Kenedy Corona and Edwin Díaz walked, but Sugar Land could not break the deadlock.

After hurling a perfect home half of the fifth, Ullola worked around a lead-off double in the sixth to spin his sixth-straight scoreless frame. Ullola went a season-high 6.0 shutout innings, allowing two hits with one walk and five strikeouts.

RHP Jayden Murray entered in the seventh and kept the game tied at zero with a scoreless frame, helped by Price throwing out Parker Chavers trying to steal second to end the inning.

Iowa opened the game up with five runs on five hits in the eighth as the Space Cowboys trailed 5-0 heading into the ninth. Although Sugar Land loaded the bases in the top of the ninth, the Space Cowboys could not bring a run in and Sugar Land was shut out, 5-0 on Wednesday.
