Up 8-4 in the bottom of the 6th, SVC increased the lead by a run on one swing, as Aaron Burger homered to left field, making it 9-4.

However, Oneonta scored five runs in the top of the 7th on five hits and a pair of SVC errors.  

Proctor entered in the 7th and got the final out of the inning, then worked a scoreless 8th and 9th.  In the bottom of the 9th, Webb was hit by a pitch to lead off, then moved to second on a sacrifice bunt by Kilkeary.  After Chris Winkler reached on an error and Webb held at second, Malone doubled home the game-winning run.
