RCH got the bases loaded when Geoffrey Verhoef followed with a single and (with two outs), Sebastiaan van der Horst walked.

After a scoreless seventh inning, UVV was able to add two more runs in the top of the eighth off of Moreno Vork, who had taken over the RCH-pitching in the previous at bat.
With one out and Karl Hoschke (fielder's choice) on first base, Luke Oliphant singled.
With two outs, both scored on a double by Daan Terstall.
