Kody Watts (University of Portland) came on in relief and pitched five scoreless innings. The righty struck out three and walked three in a hitless performance. His efforts allowed the Black Bears to have a chance at a comeback, and things looked promising in the 5th as an RBI double by Billy Flamion (Central Catholic HS) scored Kevin Schwartz (Pacific University) to break up the shutout. However, the Black Bears would manage three hits the rest of the way to keep their magic number to clinch the playoffs at 3.
