Bradley threatened in third, but Mikel Mucha would not allow the Braves to get on the board when he made a great throw from left field to throw out David Compitello at home.

The game was scoreless all the way into the bottom of the tenth. Tyler Baker reached base on a fielder's choice, then advanced to second on a groundout by Josh Halbert. Baker then advanced to third on a balk by Bradley pitcher Rob Kennedy. In the next at-bat, Erik Harbutz won the game for the Shockers when he plated Baker with a single to left.
