Campagna rocketed a two-run blast to left, while Carson McCusker hit a solo shot just two batters later. 

Entering the bottom of the eighth inning, the Otters trailed by four. however Evansville designated hitter Steven Sensley would leave the yard on Adam Hofacket's first pitch of the inning, cutting the Tri-City lead to 3. After an RBI single by Evansville shortstop Andy Armstrong, Trey Cochran-Gill entered the game with two outs and a runner on first, and escaped without any further damage.

The 'Cats would load the bases in the ninth with one out, making way for Brantley Bell, who despite having his home run streak snapped the night before, extended his hitting streak to 15 games in the first inning of Sunday's contest. Bell would drive in two runs with his second hit of the game, a single to center field, making it an 8-4 ballgame. Pavin Parks would follow Bell with a two-run double and making it a 10-4 ballgame heading to the bottom of the ninth.
