Avon took a 2-0 lead in the second inning and added a single run in the fourth, only to see the Middies tie the score with three in the top of the sixth. However, the Eagles responded by scoring seven times in the bottom of the sixth to put the game out of reach.
Matthew Sheldon pitched into the sixth inning for the hosts, allowing three runs on just two hits. Ben Strichek got the win in relief, pitching the final two innings and giving up a run on one hit.
