The Baileys Harbor A's scored three times in the bottom of the eighth inning to steal a win away from the visiting Institute Cubs 8-7 Friday night.

The game was scoreless after two innings before the teams traded two-run frames in the third. The Cubs scored their runs on a sacrifice fly by Quin Schram and an RBI single by Caleb Hoffman, while the A's plated their runs via a Bryce Plzak triple and a run-scoring line out off the bat of Chris Lodl. The A's would take the lead in the next inning thanks to productive outs from Plzak and Lodl.

The A's pitching staff ran into self-inflicted problems in the seventh inning, issuing a hit-by-pitch and three bases-loaded walks to give the Cubs a 6-4 advantage. The Cubs would see their lead slip in the eighth inning when River Pawelski delivered an RBI single and a two-run, two-out hit from Elvis Torres to give the A's the lead. Hoffman would lead off the ninth with a single, but the Cubs could not mount a comeback to steal the game back from their hosts.

Torres led the A's with four hits and two RBI, while Plzak registered two RBI himself on a pair of hits. The Cubs received two-hit performances from Frankie, Jaeger Brusky, and Hoffman.
