Campana Powers Drive to Doubleheader Split

Zach Sterry answered Riley's homer by leading off the bottom half with a solo homer to right that traveled 408 feet, cutting the Augusta lead to 4-3. 
The Drive tied the game up at four in the fifth on a sacrifice fly by Isaias Lucena.
Devon Fisher (1-3) threw a pair of scoreless relief innings to pick up the win for the Drive.
