Both Hawks homers came in the second, with the batters taking the ball with the wind to right field.

In the sixth, Evan Banks lifted a sacrifice fly to give The Master’s a 6-5 lead, then Banks went deep for the second time in the ninth — a 2-run shot to give him three RBI – in the ninth.
The Hawks answered back with a run in the home-half of the ninth on a clutch RBI single by Trevor Baker with two down. However, the Mustangs called upon releiver Ryan Mathiesen to register the final out, which he did on a strike out to garner the save.
