Clarion knotted it at one with a run in the top of the third when Daren Byers scored on a passed ball, but the Mountain Cats exploded for nine runs (5 unearned) in the bottom of the third, highlighted by Jake Ansell's three-run homer to left and Glumac's three-run double down the right field line.

In game two, Pitt-Johnstown scored two runs in the bottom of the seventh to walk-off with the 9-8 win.
 
Thomas Lavin's sacrifice fly and Nick Fugh's RBI groundout put Clarion in front in the top to start, but Tyler Smith's RBI single and Josh Reynolds' two-run single to center in the bottom of the first gave the lead to the Mountain Cats.
 
After the Golden Eagles regained the lead with two unearned runs in the third, Smith scored on a wild pitch in the bottom of the inning to tie it at four.
 
Smith's two-out RBI double in the Pitt-Johnstown fourth made it 5-4, before Fugh's two run homer to left-center in the top of the sixth gave the lead back to Clarion.
 
The Mountain Cats answered with a pair of runs in the bottom of the sixth.  With two outs, Broderick tripled and scored on Smith's base hit to left.  Tyler Treese followed with a triple to right field to give Pitt-Johnstown the lead. 7-6.
 
Clarion loaded the bases in the top of the seventh and got back-to-back sacrifice flies from Kacey Shugart and Alex Ficorilli to go back on top.
 
However, in the bottom of the seventh, Ansell's single to center plated Colin Pasone to tie it at seven, and Broderick followed with a base hit to right that chased home Glumac with the walk-off game-winning run.

Glumac went 3-for-four with a pair of runs, while Smith had three hits, including a double, three RBI and three runs for the Mountain Cats.  Broderick added three hits, and RBI, and two runs, and had two hits and drove in two.
