With the bases loaded in the fifth, sophomore Rick DiDomenico was hit by pitch to score senior Alex Kobylinsky and break a 1-1 tie.  DiGiaimo followed with his triple, but the Mighty Macs (20-12, 11-7) were not quite finished for the fifth.  Sophomore Rob Wallace added an RBI single to plate DiGiaimo and advanced to second on a throwing error. Senior Eli Vottero followed with an RBI single to score Wallace, while fellow senior Patrick Boulware pushed a single to a left field and advanced Vottero to third base. Vottero scored from third on a delayed double-steal to push Immaculata's lead to 8-1.
