In game one, Winnipeg opened the scoring off Nick Fellman in the third. Dustin Richardson drew a lead-off walk and went to third on a Cory Patton single. Both scored on a one-out double by Juan Diaz. The hosts added to their lead in the fourth when Vince Harrison homered to start the inning in his Goldeyes debut. Mark Minicozzi followed with a grounder to third baseman Jeremiah Piepkorn, who threw it away, allowing him to go to second. He went to third on a wild pitch and scored on a Zach Penprase error.
Blanked through six by Andrew Cruse while held to just five singles, the RedHawks made a game of it in the seventh. After walking Carlo Cota and Alan Rick, Cruse was lifted for Jordan Stewart, who gave up a single to Mike Coles to load the bases and a single to Penprase to make it 1-0. With the bases still loaded, Nic Jackson hit a sacrifice fly to score Rick and it was 5-2. Coles tagged and went to third on the play, Stewart was given the hook and Chris Homer came in. Donzell McDonald hit a ball that Adam Frost misplayed at short, allowing Coles to score and it was 5-3. Ruben Salazar singled to score Penprase before Piepkorn hammered one to left to make it 7-5 and complete the come back.
Fellman (6-5) picked up the win, allowing all five runs (two earned) on four hits in six innings, walking five and fanning three. Homer (1-3) took the loss after allowing three runs on two hits in two-thirds of an inning. Tim Lavigne tossed a shutout ninth for his first save.
In the second game, Fargo-Moorhead opened the scoring off Zach Baldwin in the first.

It became 3-0 in the third. With one out, Nic Jackson doubled and Donzell McDonald was hit by a pitch.

Cole stole second, Penprase walked and both moved up when Jackson grounded out.
