The Dinos went on to add one more in the bottom of the second and than held on to that lead until Richfield would add three more in the top of the sixth, taking the lead 4-3.

In the bottom of the seventh, with one out and Camden Wilson and Wyatt Falk on base, Michael Vigil came to the plate grounding out to the shortstop, but that allowed Falk to score giving the Dinos the 5-4 win.

Colton Lowe was 2-4 with a run and an RBI, Nelson and Anderson were both 1-3 with Nelson adding two RBI’s  and a run scored while Anderson added one run.

On the mound Maizen Prichard got the start, going five giving up three hits, with one earned run and struck-out seven. Anderson put in some time on the mound surrendering a pair of hits and a pair of earned runs while he struck out one. Stockton Kennedy put in an innings worth of work giving up a hit and struck-out two.

The Dinos will be back on the field on Monday when they travel to Union to face Roosevelt.
