After not getting a run in the third, the Evangels poured it on in the fourth. Upon loading the bases, MACU catcher McKenzie Gross ripped his second hit of the season, a two RBI liner double to left increase the Evangels' edge to nine.

The Evangels brought home two more when Yan Ely Adames was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded followed by a Felix Martinez sac fly to center, setting the score to 11-0.

In the fifth, Gross drove in his third of the game by slapping a single through the hole at second, bringing home Brandon Reese after he reached second on a double to make it a 12-0 MACU advantage.

Bacone finally got on the board in the top of the sixth when BC's Gabriel Luna ripped a two RBI double down the left field line, but Evangels reliever Jairo Aparicio came in and retired the first two batters he faced to get out of the inning.

The Evangels got one back in the bottom of the sixth on a Colin Miner RBI bloop single into shallow right center to score Adames to cap the scoring at 13-2.

Mid-America Christian (18-8) found itself down early in the second game of the doubleheader. After Bacone's Vincent Jeter reached on a walk, he advanced to second on a stolen base, reached third on a groundout and then scored on Luke Risenhoover's sac fly to right, making it 1-0 for Bacone (1-20).

The Evangels were quick to get the lead back in the bottom of the frame as the first six batters reached.

Edgar Martinez led off the winning with a double and came around to score off a wild pitch and a passed ball, tying the game at 1-1.
