Again a four-run inning decided things, as Wichita then scored four in the fifth to take control of the game.  Cerda doubled to lead off the inning, but he was still on second with two out.  Then came an infield single, a walk, and a wild pitch to give Wichita the lead.  Jake Rucker followed with a two-run single and Andrew Cossetti delivered an RBI double.  Midland scored one in the eighth but did not threaten to get back into the game.
