MC got on the board with two runs in the top of the first thanks to Steve Hintsala’s sacrifice fly.

The Mavs added two more runs in the third on a double by James Larsen II and MC led 4-0.

CBCH got a run back in its half of the third when Paul Storm scored on a Kyle Storm single, but the Mavericks wouldn’t be denied.

MC picked up three more runs in the fourth and then broke the game open with five in the sixth.

There were multiple hits in the game for the Mavs and Spencer Larson scored two runs. Steve Daavettila had two hits and a walk for CBCH.
