However starter Dan Rothem left the bases loaded as he struck out two straight Wolverines batters and force a pop up for the third out. MBC squandered another opportunity in 5th, down 9-3, the Wolverines would pull within four after collecting four single and a walk. That rally was stymied by base running errors from Barry Mincey, out at second on a throw behind by the center fielder leading to the first out of the inning, and Anthony Austin, picked off by the pitcher at second base leading to the second out. Morris Brown collected 13 hits, led by Anthony Clay (3 for 5, HR, RBI), Jeremiah Fielder (3 for 5, RBI), and also left 10 runners on in the loss.
