Fargo-Moorhead 3, Lincoln 2 – Box
Designated hitter Chris Grayson scored on a sacrifice fly in the eighth inning to break a 2-2 tie and lift Fargo-Moorhead to a 3-2 victory over Lincoln.

The first one came in the first inning with the bases loaded and the second one occurred in the fifth with runners on first and second.
Fargo-Moorhead CF Devan Ahart added a two-run home run in the third inning while RF K.D. Kang had a perfect 2-for-2 day and scored a run.
RedHawks pitcher Trey McNutt tossed two innings of relief and notched his fourth victory of the season. McNutt gave up an earned run on two hits and struck out a pair of Lincoln batters.
