  • The Warhawks plated five runs in the top of the seventh, behind a pair of bases-loaded walks from Jarren Wright and Phillips, an HBP by Ceman, and a two-run single by Brett Pitts.
GM 1 ON THE MOUND 
  • Clay Slagle (3-3) drew the start and notched the win in a complete game effort. He logged 7.0 innings and allowed a single earned run on five hits against two walks and four strikeouts.

  • A trio of RBI singles in the third inning, from Ceman, Clark, and Brody Syer, helped the Warhawks to a 3-0 advantage.
  • The Warhawks put a runner on base in the fourth and the sixth innings, but the Choctaws put zeros on the scoreboard.
