Joey Mazzetti pitched the next two innings, allowing two earned runs, and stranded the go-ahead runs in scoring position. CJ Broussard pitched one inning and stranded the tying run at the plate for the save. Emanuel Dean was the big man offensively for the Power. He recorded three hits and drove three runs, including a huge insurance run on a double in the eighth inning. The Power are back at it at home tomorrow night as it aims to win its seventh game in a row.
