BOMBERS (2-1) 2
GINTS (1-2) 6
Nikolas Davilla and Jacob Natale led a five-run bottom of the fifth, and pitching allows three hits to catapult the Gints to their first win of the season. Davilla hit a game-tying single with the bases loaded to drive home Ian Schmeer to make it a 2-2 game. Schmeer reached on a hit by pitch to start the frame. Robert Meeks took advantage of an error to get aboard, and Broderick Hatfield drew a walk to load the bases. Natale grounded to the left side of the infield to score Meeks, and was followed by Hatfield scoring on a passed ball. Davilla advanced to third on the same pitch and scored off Conor Forkey’s RBI-groundout.
