Omar Cruz followed, allowing two hits, walking a batter, and striking out two in 3 scoreless innings pitched. Noe Toribio allowed two hits in a scoreless 7th inning and Braeden Ogle pitched a 1-2-3 8th inning. Oliver Garcia walked three batters to load the bases in the 9th, but with the help of a strikeout closed out the game.
Altoona's lone run was driven in by Mike Jarvis who went 1-for-3. Abrahan Gutierrez was 1-for-2 with a walk and a run scored. Matt Fraizer, Domingo Leyba, and Tsung-Che Cheng each had a hit as well. That was it for Curve base runners, but it was enough to secure victory.
