In the bottom of the inning the Cudas would add 2 more runs on a single by Coleman making it a 5-2 game. In the bottom of the 5th Salvi would lead off the inning with a single and would steal second. With 2 outs Coleman would step up again but insteas of a single he would hit a RBI double giving the Cudas a 6-2 lead. In the top of the 6th the Mets would get three batters on with one out so the Cudas would call on Lou Dodge to close it out.
