The other 11 runs crossed the plate in the second inning. Jarka had a sacrifice fly for the second out and the first run. The next 11 Bison reached base.

Two runs scored on an error and Gelpi added a two-run single. Sean Iago singled in two more runs and Ramirez did the same a few batters later after an RBI walk by Lopez. Davis got the day's last RBI with a single.
