  • The Golden Knights then regained the lead one inning later in the fifth after Jared Bielanin (Erie, Pa./McDowell) scored an unearned run on a passed ball to make the score 8-7. However, Clarion was able to take advantage of a fielding error in the sixth inning to push the game winning run across and seal the contest, 9-8.
