Both teams had their opportunities, but in the end, the Cedar Rapids Kernels got the win.

Right Fielder Ernesto González made an impact for Cedar Rapids, when he swatted a run-scoring double off Sergio Cruz in the top of the fifth. For the contest, González was 1 for 4 with a double.

"I got in a good groove," said Peterson. "I was getting some swings and misses."
