- FIU slips to 1-2, while St. John's improves to 2-2
- FIU had just two hits in the game, and stranded all four runners on base.
- SJU got two runs in the first on an RBI single and RBI double before hitting two home runs in the second to just out to a 7-0 lead. A run in the fifth provided the margin needed to end the game by run rule.
