As usual, the Bombers pulled ahead early to get on the board with the lead. Third baseman Patrick McLendon and left fielder Brett Kauten started the action off with back to back singles up the middle. McLendon was able to steal second on a dropped strike then come home on a passed ball for the first run of the night. First baseman G.R. Hinsley later approached the plate to hit a single to right that allowed Kauten to score, bringing the Brazos Valley lead to 2-0 after one.

Pitcher Zach Curtis continued to keep the defense strong by pitching five straight innings with only one hit and six strikeouts. Kurt Giller, a junior from Oral Roberts University, relieved Curtis in the sixth and threw for one hit and one strikeout. In the bottom of the sixth the Bombers offense exploded at the plate. Shortstop Matt Eureste was able to reach first on a walk before McLendon ripped a strong two-run homerun over the left-center wall. On the very next pitch Kauten followed the trend by cranking his own solo homerun over the far leftfield wall to cause pure pandemonium in American Momentum Bank Ballpark. At the end of the sixth the Bombers had stretched their lead to 5-0.
