Mansfield got the bats moving early in this game, including a home run from Dylan Gervais in the first inning.

The Cubs were leading 4-0 at the end of their first at-bat.

Mansfield was leading 5-0 when Justin Fenn hit a ball high over the infield that was missed and allowed a runner to score.

The Cubs’ defence allowed no men on base in the top of the second inning.

The second Cubs home run of the game came in the second inning when Jackson Burek knocked the ball over the left field fence.

A play at first base ended the inning.

Clarksburg got on the scoreboard in the third inning when a sacrifice bunt advanced two players on base. They scored on the next hit. Another hit brought in a second Blues run.

The side ended on a double play.

The Cubs brought in another run in the fourth inning when Dylan Gervais hit a double and then rounded the bases to score on the next hit.
