Kellis V was 2-2 with two RBI and one run scored while stroking a pair of doubles, while Madera was 2-3. Macaddin Dye belted a 383-foot homer to left center, and Kane Kepley and Sawyer Black each tripled. Kepley stole a pair of bases.
Pitching highlights: Only three pitchers saw action in the shortened scrimmage. Kyle Percival  threw for Navy with Aidan Haugh and Boston Flannery throwing for Blue. Percival gave up one run on two hits while sriking out five and walking just one in 3.1 innings of action.
