 How It Happened
 


After the Broncos jumped to a 2-0 lead in the first inning, the Gators got a run back when Sammy Gonzales hit a leadoff single, made his way to third off a wild pitch and throwing error and was plated home thanks to a Daniel Santos sac fly. With runners on the corners in the second, Michael Cunningham hit a single up the middle to tie the game up. An error loaded the bases with one outs, but Pomona struck out the next two batters to get out of the jam.

Kody Gardner recorded his 31st RBI of the season to bring in Justin Clark and take the lead for the Gators in the third inning. With runners on first and second in the bottom of the fifth, Sugden launched a ball over left field on a 1-0 count to give the Gators some need insurance runs. A pinch hitter home run cut the lead to 6-4 in the top of the ninth, but the Gators held strong and got two more outs to end the inning.
