Victoria out-hit Tacoma 7-6 but the Tigers employed their base knocks to better advantage. Tacoma took the lead in the first inning by scoring twice on a walk, a sacrifice and singles by Marvin Scott and Dick Kemper, but Victoria gained a 3-2 advantage by chasing across three runs in the fourth on a walk, a hit batsman, a single by Bill Dunn and Neil Clifford's double.
