Another run was added when Connor Armstrong tripled and was cashed on Lindsay Medynski's single.
WC scored another run in the sixth. Costello reached based on an error and scored on Steve Cavanagh's RBI single.

The Electric answered back in the top of the seventh with a Trevor Barton solo homerun and another run generated by a Boucaud single, a walk to Daley, a wild pitch and an RBI ground out by Jeff Cavanagh.
McKay shut down Valley in order in the bottom of seven to seal the win.
