Javier Vaz got awarded home plate on a balk in the home half of the fourth. Carter Jensen singled to right for an RBI soon after to make the score 8-2 Wichita, and the scoreboard would not change the rest of the way.
Trent Baker took the win to even up his record at 2-2 this year. Baker threw his first quality start of the season with six innings of two-run baseball with four hits, a walk, and five strikeouts. Pierson Ohl followed with a three-inning save, giving up just two hits and a walk with four punch-outs out of the bullpen.
