How It Happened

The Bears would cut into Sac St's lead in the fourth with an RBI single from Dan Reese that would bring in Cole Maltese who singled to open the inning and advanced to second on a steal.
In the seventh and eighth inning the Hornets added on three more runs to make it a 5-1 game.
Game Changing Moment
