Fonseca goes 2-4 with an RBI.

The Potters won on Friday Night by a score of 9-4. The Potters scored 3 runs in the bottom of the 2nd inning after a Matt Lopez fielders choice, a Johnny Pacheco single and a Larry Fonseca single. Each team would score a run in the 4th inning as well. The Seals would score one in the top of the 6th inning but nothing more. The Potters responded with another 3 runs on a JC Santini single and Zach Patterson 2 RBI single putting the score at 7-2 after 6 innings. After scoreless inning out of the bullpen from Dylan Speiza the Potters called upon Justin Smith in the 8th inning. Smith allowed 2 runs to come into to score making it a 7-4 game so with 2 on and 2 out the Potters turned to Parker Ruoff. Ruoff walked the only batter he faced and that loaded the bases up and brought Tyler Cochran into the game to face the number 9 hitter, Manuel Ochoa. After falling behind 2-0 in the count, Cochran fired a strike that allowed Alonzo Rubalcaba to throw out a runner 2nd base who was getting too big of a lead to end the inning. A huge momentum swing in the game that kept the Potters on top. When asked about the stellar play from the catching position the Potters have received this season Manager Ryan Stevens said "It's been huge for us to get that great play from them. They've all been solid behind the plate, they're all getting better there as well while they work on things. Offensively we've gotten big contributions from them all season, it's been really important for us al season"
