The Sharks responded in the bottom half of the inning to make it 1-1.

David Grubaugh belted an RBI scoring Anthony Moreno to make it 2-1 in the second, but the Sharks tied it up again, this time at 2 apiece.

In the fourth, Jarrett Anton scored, but the Sharks matched the Bucs once more in the top of the fifth to draw even at 3-3.

The Bucs’ bats came through in the fifth with three runs doubling up the score to 6-3. Alex Campos and Riley Manquen notched their first RBI of the season in the fifth.

Campos was just getting started. In the eighth inning, he blasted a three-run bomb to finish 2-3 with 4 RBI on the  day. Reeser finished with three RBI as well.
