Medina rallied into the lead for good at 3-1 by scoring three times in the fourth inning on an error and a two-run double by Preston Woodworth. An error, a walk and a hit batter set up the threat.
Keeping the momentum, the Mustangs upped the advantage over the Blue Devils to 7-1 by scoring four times in the fifth frame on a wild pitch, an RBI single by winning pitcher Brody Fry, a sacrifice fly by Preston Woodworth and a steal of home. An error, a single by Vinny Gray and a walk set up the opportunity.
