After scoring 2 runs in the first inning on an error and Nathan Martorella single, both teams didn't see any offense till the 6th inning. The combination of Jack Horn and Gabe Emmit went 5 scoreless innings. The Packers would tie the game in the top of the 6th inning with a few timely hits. Then in the 7th inning, the Packers would take the lead after some crucial defensive mistakes from the Potters defense. Healdsburg would score 3 in the inning, all unearned against the Potters pitching. The Potters would get 2 runs back in the 8th inning on a KeShawn Ogans single to make it 6-4. Healdsburg would make a pitching change and then hold the line for the rest of the game.
