Evansville continued to fight back in the eighth. Jeffrey Baez blasted a two-run home run to center field, trimming the lead back to two runs.

Florence scored in the first inning chipping across a run on a two out single.

The Y’alls mounted three runs in the third inning. A leadoff walk followed by four singles built a 4-0 lead for Florence.
