Hickory started off the scoring with a solo homer off of Logan Workman in the first, but Bowling Green quickly responded in the home half. Llamas starter Owen White walked Ronny Simon with one out and Simon advanced to second on a groundout. Basabe smacked the first pitch he saw into right field to drive Simon home to tie the game up at 1-1. A two-run homer in the fourth gave Hickory the lead again at 3-1. Neither team scored over the next five innings and las Llamas ended up with a 3-1 win.

Workman (1-2) took the loss in 5.0 innings of work, allowing three runs on five hits with two walks and seven strikeouts. Victor Muñoz made his Bowling Green debut with 4.0 shutout innings, walked one batter and struck out three.
