• Carlos Pena then plated the first Keiser run with a single of his own, bringing Myott home and advancing Curtis to second.
• After Prospero's single loaded the bases, Gabby Mundo reached on a fielding error and Curtis came across the plate for the go-ahead run with no outs.
• Dylan Dore then reached on a fielder's choice as Mundo was thrown out at second and Prospero and Pena scored for the 4-2 lead.
• Berges then cleared the bases with a two-run shot to cap off the six-run top of the fifth for the Seahawks.
• Warner could not muster any more than two hits over the next two innings as Keiser held the Royals offense at bay.
• The Seahawks plated one more run in the top of the seventh when Faneyte roped a double, bringing Berges home from second for the 7-1 advantage.
