Hayden Lessenberry joined the hit parade with a single down to left field with Taylor advancing to second.  
 
AJ Kruzel would tie the score with a single of his own to score Taylor. The Reddies would then load the bases, but OBU relief pitcher Lance Cullum entered the game and was able to work out of the jam.
 
In extra-innings, Andy Reynolds led things off with a single to right field. Luke McGuire would then enter the game to pinch run for the Reddie catcher.

Henderson would get a run back in the fifth-inning when Mayall hit a two-out single up the middle to score Brackhahn who walked earlier in the inning.
