The Yard Goats scored three runs with two outs in the second inning off Fisher Cats starter Ryan Watson, highlighted by a two-run homer by Cole Carrigg. The frame was set up by a two-out triple by Zach Kokoska.
The Yard Goats added single runs in the third, fourth, fifth and sixth innings to jump to a 7-0 lead. Most of the damage did come with two outs. Dyan Jorge drove home Juan Guerrero with a two-out single in the third inning to make it 4-0 before Kokoska led off the fourth with a solo homer.
