The victory puts the Devils in sole possession of first place in their division with two games left.

The score would stay 3-2 until the third inning, when Stringer scored six runs in the frame. Weston Stringer walked, Darius Beavers then beat out an infield hit and Derek Bynum singled to left field to load the bases.
