In the fourth, with the bases loaded, Parker Quinn's grounder was misplayed allowing Friscia to score the first run. Vinnie Costello crossed the plate with the second run on a wild pitch.

Friscia followed with a sacrifice fly to center to give Hofstra a 4-0 lead.

But Charleston chipped away with a run in the sixth on Clay Hunt's sacrifice fly and another in the seventh on Chaz Davey's sacrifice fly.
