A home run by DH Nic Lendvoy won it for the Thunderbirds in the top of the tenth inning.

The Birds took a 6-4 lead in the fifth on a home run by 3B Keaton Briscoe (his first as a Thunderbird) and SS Sammie Starr scoring when LF Mike Elias reached on a fielder's choice. After that, the Birds were shut down for three innings by reliever Mike Rueda. The Poets tied it 6-6 on a two-run home run by LF Darby Weppner, off Cody Chartrand. The home run was followed by a triple by 1B Austin Straus. Shawn Hetherington came in to relieve Chartrand, and got two clutch strikeouts to strand Straus, and keep the game tied. Hetherington struck out two more batters in the eighth inning, and Taylor King pitched the final two innings, allowed one hit, struck out three.

Starr finished the game 3-4 with a two-run home run and two RBI, and Briscoe went 3-6 with three RBI. King got his first win of the season.
