Louisville was unable to recover after Washington went ahead in the 4th inning as they scored 4 runs on 3 base hits. Washington lit up the scoreboard in the 4th inning with 4 runs on 3 hits and the 5th inning with 6 runs. Even though they scored in 5 different innings, Louisville was not able to pull off the win. Win Mercer(10-11) picked up the victory, allowing 10 runs in 8 innings. Bill Hill(7-14) took the loss. His biggest problem was control as he allowed 14 walks in 7 and 2/3 innings.
