Alex Heyen had a solid game in providing the team’s only hit along with giving a strong inning and two thirds of hitless relief pitching. In game two, Karter Marks pitched well going 5 strong innings and giving up only 1 run while striking out 9. Jeffrey Sturm and Jacob Jenkins had big RBI hits to help the cause.
