Walker, Corey Sartor, and Sakowski combined to pitch a gem in a 2-1 victory in game two. The trio gave up one run on three hits and struck out 10. Sakowski provide the offensive punch in the first inning. After a two out single by Coats, Sakowski doubled to left scoring Coats. He later scored on an errant throw.
