With two outs, the Salukis waited out reliever Mark Hendrick, earning a pair of walks and loading the bases. Hendrick seemed to escape the inning when shortstop Jake Welch hit a fly ball toward the left center gap.

Center fielder Chase Hamilton raced over and appeared to make a snow-cone catch, but could not hold on and three runs scored.
