After Jarret Whorff struck out the side in the bottom of the eighth, a third Wichita run came in the top of the ninth on a Tanner Schobel sacrifice fly. While the leadoff hitter Carter Jensen reached on an infield single, a double play and a groundout to Jake Rucker ended the game with a 3-1 final in favor of Wichita.
Whorff improved to 2-1 on the season with the win, striking out three in a pair of hitless innings of relief. John Stankiewicz gave up just hit in the scoreless ninth for his second save of 2025.
