In the bottom of the ninth, UTM's Andrew Fernandez doubled home the game winning RBI off Kyle Miller (1-2) with two outs to win the series finale. 

UTM got on the board first in the third inning with Fernandez's first double of the game that scored two. 

The Redhawks responded in the fourth inning with a sacrifice fly off the bat of Lincoln Andrews to plate Peyton Leeper

Danny Sperling then grounded out to second base which scored Josh Cameron and the Redhawks tied the ball game. 

Another RBI double to left center by the Skyhawks gave UTM a 3-2 advantage after the fourth inning. 

Ben Palmer hit a sacrifice fly in the fifth inning to tie the game once again at three until the seventh inning. 

UTM regained the lead with a solo home run to left field off RHP Gavin Johnston in the home seventh.

Gunnar Doyle's home run in the ninth came with one out to tie it at four before the Skyhawks walked it off in the home ninth.
