Corey Seffernick, who delivered the game-winning hit against Garrett, led the offense for the Starfires with a home run, two singles, three RBIs, three runs and a stolen base. Blake Fox and Collin Affolder also had two hits, including a home run, and three RBIs.
Fox shut out the Raiders on two hits while striking out three batters.
