Dustin Eby earned a rare loss going three innings and allowing nine hits before Bret Hoffman and Ben Loge pitched the final three innings.
The Bobcats scored six runs in the bottom of the third to break a 1-1 tie. Evangel added its second run in the top of the seventh as the rally was too little, too late.

Game Two
The second game saw Evangel hit the ball much better in game two, however, the Crusaders left 10 runners on base in the loss.
A staff day on the mound saw Austin Dill take the loss as he was unable to get out of a 10-run first inning by the Bobcats.
