With one out in the second, Washington took the wind out of Billings' sails with his grand slam on a line from the left-handed hitters box to make it a 7-1 game. 

 

He would homer again in his next at bat, a two run shot from the right-handed hitters box to lead 9-1. 

 

Jack Lynch doubled in the fifth and scored on a stolen base and wild pitch in the same offering from Ethan McRae to lead 10-1. 

 

Great Falls added on with a single by Green to bring home Major to make it 11-1.
