The Trail Blazers took an early 2-0 lead in the first on a Bryan Haberstroh RBI double and a Chris Kwitzer RBI single. An Andrew Turner RBI single in the third and a Matthew Johnson RBI single in the fifth tied the game at two for Mohawk Valley before Adirondack took the lead in the sixth.

Down 3-2 heading into the sixth, Hunter Tackett hit an RBI single to tie the game and Brendan Tracy hit an RBI single to give the Mohawks the lead for good. 

Saugerties scored the first run of the game in the bottom of the first on an E2, but a Kyle Dean RBI single in the next half inning tied the game at one.

Both teams also scored a lone run in the third—Glens Falls’ coming on a Price RBI double and Newark’s coming on a double and an error.
