However, the Rockets would get a pair of runs in the seventh and ninth frames to seal a 8-4 victory (Recap). Sunday's series finale was arguably more dramatic and exciting as Friday. Down three entering the eighth, the Red & White pushed across three runs in the inning before Hayden Senger's walk-off double in the bottom of the ninth ended and got MU its second series win in as many opportunities (Recap).
