Felipe Melle was credited with the save for Bowling Green, his 16th of the season.

The Hot Rods got a big at-bat from second baseman Alex Baker. For the game, Baker was 2-4 with 2 doubles. In the bottom of the third, with runners on 1st and 3rd, he stroked a run-scoring double. His 13th double of the season gave Bowling Green a 1-0 lead.
