The Mud Hens answered in the top of the second with a game-tying solo home run and took a 2-1 lead in the third on an RBI single to right field.
With one out and men on second and third in the bottom of the third, SS Lucius Fox pushed across the tying run with a ground ball out to second base. 1B John Nogowski smoked a single down the right field line to take the lead 3-2.
The Mud Hens retook the lead in the top of the fourth with a pair of RBI extra-base hits to make the score 4-3. They took the lead on a single and a fielding error by LF Adrian Sanchez.
