With a slow first 5 innings the Rams would only have one hit from Jalen Brogdon, which drove in  Brody Henderson to score their first run, and cut the Morris Hills’ lead to two. In the top half of the 6th inning, Devon Mulvaney would go onto hit a 1-out single to give the Rams momentum in beginning of the inning. The Rams would then keep the pressure on by loading the  bases from tough at bats that turned into walks at the plate. The Rams would proceed to walk in a run to cut the Morris Hills lead in half, and leave Caden Breault up to the  plate. Breault would go onto hit a 2 run RBI single, to get runners at the corners which kept the pressure on. After another walk to Will Kostka and a few wild pitches, the Rams would tie it up 7-7. The Rams would keep their momentum up by getting 4 more in the 7th, in which it would result in the Rams gaining the lead 11-7 from a few hits by Mulvaney, Brogdon, and Knight.
