After getting out of a two-runners-in-scoring-position situation, the Mustangs helped out their starting pitcher, Camden Lutz, with back-to-back doubles by Schrack and Hepburn scoring Schrack. Glueck reached first on a Crop Duster error, and Hepburn scored from third, furthering the Mustangs lead 7-0.
