After Steely Gill's sacrifice fly gave the Titans an early lead, Texas Rumble Ponies answered with two runs in the second. Del Valle tied the game with a sacrifice fly, and Baker's bases-loaded walk in the fourth put Dallas back in front.
After the Rumble Ponies evened the score at 4-4 in the sixth, the Titans erupted for five runs in the bottom half of the inning. Steven Baker delivered the decisive blow with a three-run single as Dallas turned a tie game into a comfortable 9-5 advantage.
Harry Del Valle picked up the win in relief after Stephen Alexander struck out eight over 5⅓ innings. Baker finished 2-for-2 with three RBIs, Tim Nelson added two hits, and the Titans once again displayed patience at the plate with eight walks while playing error-free defense.
