With no score through the 3rd, 4th and 5th innings, it remained at 1-0 Fire Hawks. During the top of the 6th inning, Tennessee Southern would plate 3 runs that started with an RBI double and then a 2 RBI single. The Rams finally escape the inning trying to get the offense going. During the top of the 7th inning, the Fire Hawks would plate 2 more runs and finally in the bottom of the 8th, Jake Hammonds singled to third base, and this was followed with a Trevor Murphy 2 run home run to left field. The final score of the game was 6-2 but the Rams still secured the series win the day before.

Trevor Murphy and Adrian Salas each had a pair of hits, while Jake Hammonds, Weston Tubbs and Damian Ortiz all had one hit. Trevor Murphy's second hit was a 2-run home run. Brody Swindle was credited with the loss but had 4 strikeouts and only had 1 earned run.
