UNA got a run back in the fifth on a fielding error, but Lipscomb responded in a loud way thanks to Thomas again. AFter a lead-off double by Keaton Mahan, Thomas went to left field again for a 368-foot shot for his second homer of the game.

In the eighth, two hits and four walks by the Lions' bats saw them score three times to put it away and win the game 13-7.
