The Shockers go scoreless for this inning, and they head in.

Fourth pitcher for Wichita State, #4 Noah Krol goes to the mound. Up for New Orleans at the top of the ninth is josh Tarnow. Krol strikes him out and #8 Nick Schwaner steps up to the plate. Schwaner gets it, and speeds to first base. Anderson goes up to bat, and gets a hold of it sending him to first, and Schwaner goes to second. #30 Ryan Eden steps into the batting order for New Orleans. Eden hits it down center and sends in Schwaner for the Privateers' scoring.

Now for the 5th Shocker pitcher, # 6 Noah Booth. Gillaspie misses the tag on Anderson as Bowser is up to bat for New Orleans. New Orleans scores with a run batted in by Brandon Bowser, sending in Anderson. New Orleans 7, Wichita State 6.
