The Bucs broke a 2-2 tie with two runs in the sixth and extended their lead with four runs in the seventh. Davis Morgan and Logan Davis each notched three hits, and the Bucs finished with 11.

-- Brady Hohl's two-run single in the top of the 12th inning lifted the Anchorage Glacier Pilots to a 5-3 win over the Mat-Su Miners Thursday, in a non-league game at Herman Brothers Field in Palmer.
