The SeaWolves put the game out of reach in the top of the ninth against a pair of Reading relievers. Jonathan Hennigan started the inning and gave up three consecutive singles to Gonzalez, Ward and Lester to load the bases. Juan Centeno singled home Gonzalez with one out for a 9-2 lead. Carpenter picked up his second RBI of the night on a sacrifice fly, plating Ward making it 10-2. Peterson reloaded the bases beating out and infield single, turning the lineup over to Greene.
