Colorado Springs, W 9-8 in 11 innings

Matt Murton went 3-for-5 with two homers and seven RBI. Both homers were three-run ones, but it was the second one that put the Sky Sox ahead 8-7 entering the bottom of ninth. Unfortunately, Ben Julianel allowed a run in the bottom of the ninth to tie the game. But Matt Murton came to the rescue once again by hitting into a sac fly in the top of the 11th. Julianel, who pitched the last 2 2/3 innings of the game, held on to the lead for his first victory.

Brandon Hynick surrendered five runs on eight hits and two walks in five innings. He struck out one.

Tulsa, W 1-0
