Despite notching seven hits, the Bisons struggled for the timely hits to drive runs across home plate. Errors also plagued the Bisons, allowing seven unearned runs. On the other side, the Lions got hot early and didn't slow down, barreling 11 hits.
Lipscomb's first run came early in the first inning for a 1-0 lead. Haddon Adams worked a leadoff walk and stole second, getting himself in scoring position. Chaz Bertolani delivered his 15th RBI of the season with a single up the middle to drive Adams home for the lead.
