Boxscore Winnipeg took a 3-0 lead in the top of the third inning. Right fielder Max Murphy reached on a fielding error, first baseman Kevin García singled to centre, and shortstop Ray-Patrick Didder crushed a three-run home run to left field. It was his team-leading 12th of the season and gave him 38 runs batted in, second only to centre fielder Noah Marcelo ’s 45. An inning later, the Goldeyes extended their lead by a run when second baseman Keshawn Lynch tripled and later scored on catcher Raphaël Pelletier ’s groundout to second. They held that advantage until the bottom of the seventh, when Lake Country (31-23) erupted for four runs to tie the ballgame. Third baseman Clayton Slack got the DockHounds on the board with a two-out single to centre that drove in centre fielder Jake Snider. Catcher Dylan LaRue then scored on shortstop Ripken Reyes’ double to right field to cut the deficit to 4-2. Finally, right fielder Joshua Mears lined a base hit to centre that brought Slack and Reyes home to even the score at 4-4. Winnipeg regained the lead for good in the top of the eighth inning when designated hitter Jiandido Tromp singled to right field, scoring left fielder Adam Hall to make it 5-4. Lake Country threatened in the bottom of the inning, but Derrick Cherry (S, 9) stranded the potential go-ahead run at second base. In the ninth, Cherry retired the side in order, including a game-ending strikeout of Mears. Ryo Kohigashi started for the Goldeyes and allowed just three hits over six scoreless innings. The left-hander struck out six and walked two. Willian Suárez , Eli Saul (W, 3-0), and Cherry followed out of the bullpen.
