Soat and Kaiser had each singled.
The Mastodons added two more runs in the sixth on two hits while aided by an error, as well. Soat doubled down the left field line to plate both redshirt-sophomore Shannon Baker (1-3) and junior Jackson Boyce (0-3). Baker had singled, while Boyce had reached base on a fielder's choice.
IPFW scored in the seventh courtesy of Trevino's fourth home run this season, a solo blast center field while leading-off the inning. The Mastodons added two final runs in the eighth on Whitman's two-run single that drove home Boyce and Soat, who had walked and been hit-by-a-pitch, respectively.
