At the end of the inning, Ilyas Chakir hit a double, getting both Liam Stendardo and Jack Collins home. The second inning wasn’t much different as the Cardinals scored only one run by Aedan Provo. The Diamondbacks fought back getting seven runs. Stendardo hit a double, getting Guidara and Mark Haley home. Stendardo made it home.  Max Phillips, Cassidy, Chakir, and George Boksanski also got runs.
