Ryley Boman led off the inning with a single and scored on a Tyson Hutchins double. Alex Childs beat out an infield single and then a Logan error allowed Hutchins to score. After a fielders choice Jake Campbell singled in a run followed by an Andrew Nelson RBI single. Leading 5-1 the Cowboys tacked on what proved to be the game winning run in the 5th inning. Kort Fonger led off with a walk, Taylor Matthews laid down a bunt as both runners were safe on a Logan error. Jake Campbell then beat out another bunt attempt to load the bases. After one out was recorded Andrew Nelson hit a hard shot at the drawn in infield to score a run before the Grizzlies recorded two outs on the base paths. Things got interesting in the 7th inning as Logan mounted a rally to pull within 6-5 before Cole stuck out the final Logan hitter to end the game in thrilling fashion with the tying run on 3rd base.
