Steve Mortimer drove in two more with a home run in the third to give the RedHawks a 4-0 lead after three. A triple by Joe Mathis drove in Fargo’s fifth run of the contest in the fourth and two more runs on an RBI groundout from Dan Maycock and a run-scoring single from Mathis in the sixth capped off the RedHawks scoring.
