            The fourth inning continued to look promising for Berry as Morgan Frye hit a homer to center field going way past the fence. The score of 2-1 stayed the same up until the sixth inning where the Captains found ways to score three unearned runs suddenly putting them ahead by two.

The Captains managed to tack on another two runs in the seventh inning to seal the win. This is the first loss the Vikings have experienced since the regular season against Birmingham-Southern.
