The Shockers scored a run in the top of the 12^th inning on a wild pitch, which allowed Micah Green to score. The Pelicans answered with a run of their own to tie it at one each and then the Green Wave’s Andrew Garner hit a walk off grand slam later in the inning to take the first game of the series 5-1.

The next day the Shockers started off hot as Chase Simpson hit a three-run home run to right field to give WSU a 3-0 lead.

Tulane would answer back in the bottom of the third with a SAC fly to center to score Grant Brown. Tulane then evened the score at three after the bottom of the six with Willsey and Garrett Deschamp both scored. 

Then in the bottom of the seventh the Green Wave scored again as Johnny Gandolfo scored on a single from Jake Rogers to give the Green Wave the lead 4-3.

Tanner Dearman then hit his first career home run in the top of the ninth to tie up the game at four. Tulane would answer in the bottom of the ninth and Garner then scored on a single by Kaplan to win the game by a score of 5-4.
