The Bottom half of 2 would prove to show more control problems for the Cox starter. Leading off, Christian Bethelmy would draw a walk and go on to swipe second with none out. Back to the top of the order Killian Strenn and Tyler Lassiter would draw back to back walks to then load the bases with none out. After not finding the strike zone, Falcons head coach, Bill Conroy would go to his bullpen before Alex Lambert would come to the plate.
After the pitching change, Lambert would hit a sac fly, scoring the runner from third to make the score 4-1 Ocean Lakes. Next up, Shawn Morimando would hit into a fielders choice, moving both runners over but giving the Fins their second out of the inning. In the next at bat, Casey Bryant would roll over a grounder to third to end the threat for Ocean Lakes in the bottom of 2.
Excellent work by the Cox relief pitcher coming in with a no out bases loaded jam and only surrending 1 Run (charged to the starter)... Hats off.
At the end of 2:
Ocean Lakes-4 Cox-1
