Joe Ryan gave up one run in six innings on 102 pitches and left with a lead that Eric Orze surrendered — two hits, two runs in the ninth. Orlando Arcia's first home run of the year came in the eighth and tied the game, and a first homer in June arrives after a long wait. Carter Jensen's sacrifice fly brought Tyler Tolbert home and Witt's single brought Josh Rojas. Alex Lange struck out the side on 28 pitches to save it.
