In the second the Wolf Pack would add three more runs to give pitcher James Holcomb some breathing room. Carlos Madrid would score Josh Laidlaw on a single after Laidlaw reached base on a double to left field. Catcher Craig Markel advanced to second on the hit after he reached base on a walk. Markel would eventually score after a couple of wild pitches from pitcher Matt Dolen. Haas then singled to score Madrid and give Nevada a 4-0 lead.
