Scudder moved up to 2nd on a wild pitch, then screened Nick Bradshaw's grounder to short allowing Bradshaw to reach 1st while Scudder headed home to pull Brashear within one run at 3-2. LaPlata immediately answered with a pair of runs in the bottom of the 5th, then iced the game with 3 runs in the 6th for an 8-2 win. Nick Thomas took the loss for Brashear.
