Saskatoon jumped out to a 13-0 lead before Moose Jaw finally got on the board in the bottom of the sixth inning. Austin Gurney hit a double to bring home Ben Waliczek. Robert Estrada then singled to score William Edwards. Gurney would score on the same play off an error by the third baseman.

The Berries added runs in the seventh and eighth inning to go up 15-3. 

The Miller Express would finish off the ball game with three runs in the bottom of the ninth. Tanner DeGrazia hit into a fielder's choice to drive in Estrada. Pacey Phillips would also hit into a fielder's choice to bring DeGrazia home. Thomas Soto rounded out the scoring with a single to drive in Andy Rivas.
