If it weren't for some defensive and base running mental lapses this win would have been a lot easier. But the team came through when the chips were down. Emlen Fischer had a rocky start, walking the first batter, followed by three very hard hit singles. Suddenly Fischer found his stride and proceeded to strike out 5 of the next six batters. He held Mt. Olive hitless until the 5th inning when a combination of walks, an error, and the aforementioned defensive mental lapses allowed Mt. Olive to score 5 runs on only 2 hits and turn a 6-2 Summit lead to a 7-6 Mt. Olive advantage. Summit had gained the lead on a 4 run fourth when Josh Lipsey got on base on an error, Mike Nelson singled and Ben Wheeless smashed a huge home run to clear the bases. Emlen Fischer then singled and Nick Monaco drove him in with the first of his two doubles. Following the the semi-debacle in the Mt. Olive 5th, Summit came roaring back with 3 runs. Jon Campagna led off with a single and was sacrificed to second by Fischer's bunt. After Matt Benedetti drew a walk, Nick Monaco hit his second double of the day to drive Campagna home. A single by Brian Dunnder scored Benedetti, and a sacrifice fly by Kai Donaldson (pinch hitting for Tyler Hartlaub) allowed Monaco to score. That made the score 9-7 in favor of Summit.

Fischer walked the lead off batter in the sixth and Campagna came on in relief. He put the side down, but not before one run (charged to Fischer) came in to make in 9-8. In the Summit 6th a single by Wheeless, a stolen base and a single by Fischer gave Summit an insurance run. It wasn't needed since Campagna retired MO 1-2-3 in the 7th to nail down the win.
