Nick Hamilton followed with the game-winning RBI single, scoring Urban to give the Ironmen the lead.

Phil Brua finished the Blue Sox off in the bottom of the ninth inning for his fourth win of the season. Brua pitched two innings to earn the win.

The Ironmen scored two runs in the top of the fourth inning on a Nate Antone two-run single, scoring Tony Brunetti, who singled, and Stephen Hagen, who walked.

Lorain County added two more runs in the fifth inning, led by Brunetti and Ingraham.
