Exeter evened the count when they added two more runs to their credit in the third and fifth inning, but won their game in the eighth inning, when they secured three runs. During Exeter's half of the fourth inning, Lawson was hit in the face with a foul ball and was unable to return to the game. Tieman went into the box and pitched excellent ball striking out 9 men during the remainder of the game.
