The home team was supported by a raucous crowd at H.P. Hunnicutt Field.

In the bottom of the fifth, Princeton center fielder José Franco had a productive at-bat. With runners on 2nd and 3rd and no one out, Franco stroked a 2-run single to right. It made the score 3-0, Princeton. For the game, he was 1 for 3 with 2 walks, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once.

Said losing manager Jose Mejia: "Give the Rays credit. They took advantage of our mistakes."
