UWF got on the board first in the bottom of the fifth. Despite tallying no hits at the time, the Argos loaded the bases on two walks and a hit by pitch. Dom Presto stepped up to the plate and grabbed an RBI off a walk to send the first run in.
 
The Canes responded with a one run on two hits frame in the sixth.
 
UWF quickly regained the lead in their next offensive appearance. The Argos sent two runs home off three hits – totaling their hits for the game. Cade Easterbrook led of the inning with a double.
