The next inning also proved beneficial in securing the win, as the Majors began the series of retiring 12 straight batters in the fifth.  The Blazers would not reach base again until the ninth where they threatened with two runners on and one out.
 
Chris Guerin, however, was never fazed as the reliever closed out the game with a fly out to right field and strike out to secure the 6-2 win.
