JH Vaughan followed with a two-run double to center to give the Ephs their first lead of the day.
Hank Jacobus kept the rally going with an RBI double of his own, extending the advantage to 4–1, pushing Vaughan across the plate.
Sage cut into the deficit in the fifth with an RBI double, but the Ephs responded once again in the bottom half of the inning.
Ryan Nakajima delivered an RBI triple to center, and Mosrie followed with a bunt single that turned into an RBI after a throwing error, pushing the lead to 6–2.
The visitors added one more run in the seventh, taking advantage of a Williams error, but the Ephs held firm the rest of the way to secure the 6–3 win.
Mosrie led the offensive effort with two hits and two RBIs, while Vaughan drove in a pair off one hit. Williams saw balanced production throughout the lineup, as four Ephs tallied two hits apiece.
Williams returns to action tomorrow as they host RPI beginning at 4:00 p.m.
