Watson hit his second home run in the seventh to left center that cut Bowie’s deficit to 5-3. Brandon Martorano went deep on a solo shot to left in the ninth that sealed the game for the Squirrels.

Watson led the Baysox with a 2-for-4 night. He picked up two RBI on his two home runs. Patrick Dorrian, Seth Mejias-Brean, Johnny Rizer, and Malquin Canelo each recorded one hit for Bowie. The Baysox went 0-for-4 with runners in scoring position and left five runners on base.

Tyler Joyner, Tim Naughton, and Tyler Erwin finished the game out of the bullpen. Naughton pitched two innings and allowed one hit and two walks, he also recorded three strikeouts.
