Bottom of the First:
Jimmy Reed grounds a hit to right. T.R. Hunter beats out an infield hit... And the Steamrollers have already matched the number of hits Warwick gave up in his last game...

With the infield in, PH Mike Volkman (35-L) grounds one through the right side for a hit and both runners score and Volkman ends up on 2nd!! 2 to 1, Jays! Leander Gooding grounds a hit up the middle and Volkman beats the throw home and Gooding takes 2nd! 3 to 1, Jays! With 1 out, they walk Ray McDonald intentionally.
