Kevin Afflerbach (Edmonds CC) allowed two base runners in his two innings of relief work for the Brewers and Nick Mailhot (Saint Martin’s, Northwest Christian HS) worked a scoreless seventh before getting into trouble in the eighth inning. Bo Pearson (Pacific Lutheran) tripled and following a walk to Josh Potter (Campbellsville), scored on a single by Jose Acosta (Centralia) to cut the lead to 4-2.
