Aiden Urdiales was a standout: he scored a run and stole Two bases. while going 2-for-4. He also brought in three RBI, which is notable because Jefferson is undefeated when he posts at least three RBI, but 6-7 otherwise. Gabriel Rangel was another key player, scoring a run and stealing a base while getting on base in all four of his plate appearances.
