The Tides scored their first six runs of the game on just six hits as they found nearly every way to score without getting a hit that they could. Reed Trimble hit a sac fly. Samuel Basallo grounded into a bases-loaded double play and got hit by a pitch with the bases loaded. Dylan Beavers took a bases-loaded walk. TT Bowens knocked in the fifth and sixth runs with a single to break the streak.
Thaddeus Ward started and was not good. He gave up five runs in just 3.1 innings with seven hits and three walks. Keegan Gillies and Chayce McDermott were good in relief, and the Tides held a 6-5 lead into the eighth before Matt Bowman allowed the tying run to score.
