Christian Dow got the Herons off to a good start on the mound in the first game, He was relieved by Jeff Biron who closed out the finally inning, holding the Lynx scoreless setting the Herons up to potentially stage a late game rally. The Herons couldn't get their bats going in the final inning to complete the comeback.
Aaron Pomeroy gave the Herons 4 solid innings on the mound in the second game. Offensively, the Herons looked great early in the second game. Bryce Smith homered in the first inning and Mitchell Bechard hit a solo homerun in the bottom of the fourth inning to extend the Herons lead.
