The Redlegs lost grip on another lead in game 2, though
they had to work a little harder to get on top early on.
The Slammers put up a run in the first and two more in
the second to take an early 3-0 lead. Ryan Gross was
able to help limit the damage as he nailed two runners
trying to steal in the 2nd inning. He got Austin Dozier
for the first out in the inning and Dan Barhorst for the
3rd out, limiting the damage to two runs.
Luke Campbell then came on in relief and pitched well
over the next 4 frames, allowing only 2 earned to the
high-powered Slammers offense. Meanwhile, the Redlegs
rallied around Campbell and dropped a 5 spot in the top
of the 4th inning. Adam Parks and Jared Bradley each
walked to start the inning, and both then scored on
double by Jacob Robinson. After the next two batters
were retired, Joey Watson drove Robinson home with a two-
out single. Saige Micomonaco then singled before Brandon
Howard and James Robinson delivered back to back RBI base
hits.
The Slammers later would score twice in the 5th inning,
knotting things up at 5. The score stood at 5 going into
the bottom of the 7th, setting the stage for a walk-off
grand slam by Austin Dozier.
