  • AIC extended its lead to four in the bottom of the third. It started when freshman Austin Beaqueath singled to left and advanced to second when senior Angel Mendez wore a pitch. After a balk by the Bridgeport pitcher, junior Michael Cruz singled to right as Beaqueath scored easily and Mendez slid into home headfirst just ahead of the throw. Cruz scored when senior Brandon Gaul singled up the middle with two outs.
  • The Purple Knights took lead in the top of the sixth as they scored five runs on five hits and one AIC error. They added a run in their next at-bat.
  • After a call to the arm barn senior Dalton Quinn led the bottom of the ninth with a single through the left side. A fielding error by the Purple Knights gave AIC runners on first and second with one out but was able to get out of the inning and take the game 6-4.
