The Marauders got out to a good start in the first game of the day, building a 5-0 lead after three innings of play. U of T’s lone run came in the fifth, only to be answered back by two more McMaster runs in both the fifth and seventh innings.

Jonathan Isaac led Toronto with three hits, one RBI and two stolen bases in the loss.
