The game was scoreless until the third inning, but the Bulldogs put immediate pressure on the Falcons in the frame, as Minich smashed a leadoff triple. A hit-by-pitch and walk loaded the bases for Redbank Valley and two more walks forced in the game’s first two runs. Clouse further expanded the Bulldogs’ lead, clearing the bases with a two-out, three-RBI double.

A two-RBI single in the fifth by Minich would up Redbank Valley’s lead to 7-0, and a Kobe Bonanno home run one inning later would put the Bulldogs up 9-0. The Falcons would score a pair in the bottom half of the inning, and Redbank would score two more in the seventh to set the final score.
