In the bottom of the sixth, Amsterdam turned the game its way again with a 7-run rally off of new pitcher Scott Ronnenbergh.
The lefthander got the bases loaded when he walked Max Clarijs and gave up singles to Remco Draijer (bunt) and Zerzinho Croes.
Nick Urbanus then grounded out, but that also brought in the tying run.
The bases were re-loaded when Ronnenbergh hit Gilmer Lampe with a pitch.
A following single by Kenny Berkenbosch gave Amsterdam a 4-3 lead, then five more runs were added with two outs.
A force play-grounder by Danny Rombley brought in the first of these five runs.
The bases were then loaded again when Jesse Aussems walked and a following walk for Rashid Gerard led to the next run.
In his second at bat in the inning, Max Clarijs delivered a 2-run double and another run was added on a wild pitch.
That finally led to a pitching change.
Third baseman Mervin Gario took over and ended the long inning when he fielded a comeback-grounder.
While Amsterdam had taken a 5-4 lead, the inning had to be completed according to tournament-rules.
This is needed in case a run-difference tiebreaker is needed to determine the ranking.

HCAW wins twice on Day 1 Urbanus Tournament
BUSSUM (Neth.) -
On the first day of the 35th edition of the In Memoriam Charles Urbanus Sr. Tournament, host HCAW registered two victories on Saturday (April 8).
This was somewhat of a surprise, as it faced two teams who were in the Play-Offs last year.
HCAW turned a 4-1 deficit into a 5-4 win against L&D Amsterdam Pirates, then also came from behind against Hoofddorp Pioniers.
After trailing 1-0, HCAW won that game with a 3-1 score.
