In the run-rule victory to start the doubleheader, May gave up a run in the top of the first, answered with four in the bottom half, scored three more in the second and tacked on the final four in the fourth inning.

In the seven-run second game triumph, May jumped out to a 6-0 advantage in the top of the first inning. The lead grew to 8-0 in the top of the third before Jayton scored all its runs in the bottom of the frame. The Tigers then tacked on single runs in the fourth and seventh innings.
