Silver Creek wasted no time scoring jumping on the board in the top of the first. With runners on first and second Shae Durham would hit a ball hard down the third base line for a RBI double.

Silver Creek was able to push one run across in each of the next three innings. In the second an over throw on a sacrifice bunt allowed Logan Murphy to scored, Murphy had doubled to start the inning. Cameron Cook helped his own cause in the third with a lead off solo homerun deep over the scoreboard in left center field. Then in the fourth Durham collected his second RBI of the game with a sacrifice fly giving Silver Creek a 4-0 lead.

In the bottom of the fourth Cook allowed his lone run of the game. Charlestown’s Tanner Wesp drove a curveball over the left field wall for a solo homerun. Wesp had both of the hits Cook allowed, also singling in the first inning.

In the top of the fifth Silver Creek responded to Charlestown’s run with five of their own to put the game out of reach. The Dragons loaded the bases thanks to a pair of errors and a hit batter. Cody Razer drew a bases loaded walk to bring in the first run of the inning and Brahm Whittinghill cleared the bases with a three run triple to right field.
