Eastlake bats came alive in the 5^th inning as Eastlake was down 2-0.  Adam Hicks hit a double, quickly followed by a double and RBI by Brett Upchurch, who also hit a triple in the 3rd inning.  Ryan Focht, the designated hitter, followed with a double and RBI.  Then Kyle Walther launched a 2 run homer over the left center fence to score the third and fourth runs of the game.
