Mahoning Valley Scrappers 1, West Virginia Black Bears 7

Mahoning Valley jumped out to a 1-0 lead thanks to an RBI double from 2016 first round pick Will Benson, but that would be the end of the offense for the Scrappers as the team proceeded to allow seven unanswered runs.

Offensively, Wilbis Santiago led the way going 2-3 at the dish with a walk and the lone extra base hit, a two-run homer. Felix Fernandez was also perfect at the plate, going 1-1 with three walks.
