Later with the bases loaded and one out, Andrew Salas reached on an RBI fielder’s choice to score Victor Ortega as Jupiter got themselves back within two runs at a 6-4 deficit through six innings.
Fort Myers struck again in the top of the seventh inning. Jose Rodriguez led off the inning with a triple after Head just missed a diving catch in center field.

Hammerheads relief pitcher Luis Ramirez made his Single-A and Jupiter debut with a perfect top of the ninth inning with two strikeouts. Jupiter put two runners on in the bottom of the ninth inning with a Head single, hit third hit of the game, and an Andres Valor walk, but Kirby was able to strand two runners on in a scoreless inning, preserving the 8-4 win for Fort Myers.
