In the eighth inning, both teams scored a pair of runs which eventually sent the game into the 10th inning.

The Panthers were ready to seek revenge on Saturday afternoon as senior Sean Mason took the mound for the Mavs. With the Mavs leading 1-0 in the bottom of the third, the Panthers came fighting back with two runs to take a 2-1 lead.
