The Trailblazers (2-3) grabbed the first lead of the game in the bottom of the first when Tyson Fisher doubled home a run with two outs against WSU starter (0-1). The Shockers got an RBI double of their own from in the top of the third to draw even at 1-1, but Utah Tech seized control with five runs in the bottom of the inning.
