Gavin Velarde brought in Porter and Young with a single to give the Wolves a 4-3 lead.

Then Evan Hurn drew one of his three walks to load the bases again.

Daniel Harker’s two-out single scored Faunce and Velarde and advanced Hurn to third base. Hurn then stole home to wrap up the scoring.

The Warriors (0-7) opened the scoring with a pair of runs off Faunce in the bottom of the first.

Sequim tied the score two innings later when Nigel Christian doubled in Austin Hilliard, and Jonathan Serrano singled home Christian.

Rochester regained the lead with a run in the bottom of the fifth, but it was short-lived because the Wolves answered with that big sixth inning.
