Game #2: Elgin Community College 16, Madison College 11

Game two of the doubleheader was quite the opposite of the opener, as the two teams combined for 27 runs, 31 hits, and the opposing offenses were aided by six errors in the slugfest. Elgin got the offense started in the first inning with three runs to set the tone for the game. The WolfPack countered in the bottom of the second with four runs to take the 4-3 lead, but that lead wouldn't last long. The Spartans plated four runs off their own to start the third inning, and the WolfPack answered with three runs in the bottom of the frame. Tied up at 7-7 entering the fourth inning, the two teams each scored a run over the next two inning to remain tied, before Elgin started to out distance the 'Pack in the top of the sixth inning. Elgin scored eight runs over the next two innings, including seven in the sixth, and the 'Pack could only muster three more in the hard fought five run loss.
 
Nick Kanavas and Kian O'Brien both finished with three hits and a double in the loss, and four more added two hits. Kanavas ended the game 3-for-3 with two RBI and a run scored, and O'Brien finished 3-for-5 with two runs scored. Besides the double from Kanavas and O'Brien, Chris Lund joined with a double of his own on his way to finish the day 2-for-5 at the plate with a RBI. The three others that joined Chris Lund with two hits were Simon Maurice, Bryce Plate, and Alex Mayer. Maurice finished 2-for-5 with a team high three RBI, Plate went 2-for-4 with two runs scored, and Mayer went 2-for-3 with a team high three runs scored and tied for the team high with three RBI.
