Damien Lariz relieved him and did a solid job, pitching an inning while giving up no earned runs or hits (he also didn't allow any walks).
At the plate, Toby Highsmith was incredible, scoring two runs and stealing a base while going 1-for-2. Another player making a difference was Saxon Shah, who went 1-for-2 with a triple, a run, and an RBI.
