With the win, the Big Green move to 2-7 overall, collecting their second win of the West Coast road trip, while the LIons fall to 10-8.

While the Big Green held the Lions off the board in the fifth inning, they added two in their half of the sixth inning, to retake the two run lead, up 7-5 headed into the final three innings.

The Big Green began to chip away in the seventh, scoring one run. They added three in the eighth and one in the ninth, including a two run single by Zajec in the eigtht inning to continue his strong performance at the plate and secure the 10-8 victory for the Big Green.
