Roosevelt was unable to score and Ballard had one more chance to win the game in the second half of the seventh inning. Ballard tied the game with hits from Brandon Foor and Guiarino Oliver.

With Steven Weber up to bat, Roosevelt changed pitchers. Weber's base hit was enough to hit Oliver home and put Ballard in the lead. Ballard won the game four to three.
