In the bottom of the sixth with the score at 10-5, Witmer smashed a line drive down the third base line giving him a triple. Hanson stepped up to the plate and drove a fly ball over first base giving him an inside-the-park home run finalizing the score, 12-5. Hanson was surprised about his inside-the-park home run. "It wasn't the prettiest hit, but it got the job done," he said. "It helped extend our lead and secure a much-needed victory to advance in the playoffs." The 20th EMS AGE flight had some highlights as well. Richard Prillerman hit a single and sent two runs home in the second inning, which tied the score 3-3. In the top of the sixth, Sean Barrett stepped up to the plate and drove a double over the second baseman's head sending two runs in as well. After the game was over, the teams shook hands and CMS second baseman, Glenn, added a few comments about the team. "It was a good win and I hope to keep that momentum going all throughout the playoffs," said Glenn. "The heat was a factor, but we were able to push through it and come out victorious. The team really came together when needed to show some defense and we should be able to surprise (the rest of the) teams throughout the playoffs as long as we hit the ball and put the points up on the board."
