The Grizzlies took a 5-4 lead with runs in the fourth and fifth. The Saints grabbed the lead with three in the sixth when Nethercot doubled home a run and Sweat singled home two. In game two, the Saints scored two in the first for starter Adam Keller as Nethercot stayed hot with a homer to left center. Butler scored one in the first and two in the third to lead 3-2. The Grizzlies tacked on a run in the fourth to lead 4-2. Errett Edwards’ two out RBI double to left made it 4-3 and he scored later on an error to tie it at four. Butler quickly took the lead right back with a run in the fifth to lead 5-4 and that closed the book on Keller after five innings. Dylan Paul doubled and scored on a Tony Dorado Double to tie it at 5-5 in the sixth. Butler scored one in the bottom of the sixth to lead 6-5. They exploded for nine in the seventh to end the game after seven at 15-5. Seward is 24-19 and 13-9 and Butler is 18-25 and 7-15.
