Tempe starter R.D. Ilg kept the Buckeye offense under clamps, while his team rolled to victory, 11-1. The 8th-place Impalas improved to 6-24.

Tempe used the hitting of Cooper Johnson to pick up the win. The catcher clubbed a solo home run in the top of the second inning to put the Impalas on top, 1-0. For the game, Johnson had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"We didn't pitch good, and when you don't pitch good, you lose," said Buckeye manager Easton Lins.
