The next game the Drive played from behind for pretty much the entire game till the 7th when the Drive was able to come back from down to tie the game to send it to extra innings, as in double headers they only play 7 regular innings. The Hot Rods was able to get the game winner in the 8th inning 5-4 and split the double header in front of a great crowd Saturday night.

WE. ARE. TIED.
Enderso Lira delivers the one out knock to score two in the bottom of the seventh!
