Omaha Uniforms - Orlando Uniforms

Notes
These two have been even all series, even gaining status as a new rivalry, after one of the best series so far. This would be the only game not settled by 2 or less runs. Omaha jumped on Kip Wells early, getting 2 doubles in the first. Then, he got good. Kip wells retired the next 10 batters, as a 5 pitcher, it's astonishing. Joe Crede hit a solo shot in the 2nd to tie up the game. In the bottom of the 3rd, the flood gates were released. Freeman hit a double, scored after 2 singles, and with 2 runners on, Joe Crede hit another homer to make it 5-1. Nothing happened after that, being the last hit of the game.
