Dorraugh drove a single to to right field, plating Janik for another run. Mark Shallenberger (Evansville) followed suit, driving in Widder to put the Chucks up 5-0 at the end of the 2nd.
The Chucks score three more runs in the bottom of the 3rd after loading the bases on walks. The Mallards try to get something going in the 4th inning, and score one run, but Levenson quickly extinguished their flicker of hope by smacking a home run to left field that drives in himself and Watkins, putting the Chucks up 10-1.
Madison tried to rally again in the 5th inning, scoring one more run. However, the Woodchucks answered in full force by adding three more runs to bring the score to 13-2. The Chucks remained strong on both offense and defense for the remainder of the game, keeping a chokehold on the Mallards to end with a final score of 13-2.
