OMAHA, Nebraska – Oklahoma City got off to a good start in Sunday's game, but Omaha came through with a better finish.

The Storm Chasers topped the RedHawks 10-7 on Sunday thanks to a three-run walk-off homer to finish things off.

In a high scoring game where the teams combined for 21 hits, OKC got on the board first in the first inning.

Scott Moore, in the second at-bat of the game, sent the pitch out of right field to make it a 1-0 game early.

From that point, things started to sway back and forth for most of the game.

Omaha responded with two runs in the bottom of the first to regain the lead, but OKC flipped the score right back with two runs in the second to lead 3-2.

The teams kept flip-flopping the lead until the final inning, when Oklahoma City earned two runs to tie the game. Justin Ruggiano picked up his fourth homer of the year, scoring Brian Bixler in the process to knot the game at seven.

But Omaha's Cody Clark proved to be the difference and this time there was no chance for the RedHawks to bounce back again.

Clark hit a three-run, walk-off homer to right field, scoring Jason Bourgeois and Clint Robinson in the process.

Roman Colon picked up the win for Omaha while Juan Abreu got the loss, throwing 1.2 innings and giving up three runs.

The three-game series will finish out on Monday in Omaha at 11:05 a.m.
