David Harris leads off the third inning with a single to center field.
Dickie Thon Jr. takes one for the team with the bases loaded.
That leads to Harris crossing home plate with the first run of the game and getting congratulated by pitching coach Jim Czajkowski.
Chaz Frank makes a mad dash towards the plate on a wild pitch.
Frank begins a head-first dive towards home plate as Boise pitcher James Pugliese goes after the ball. Hawks catcher Cael Brockmeyer can only look on.
Frank goes between the wickets of Pugliese to touch home plate and make it 3-0 Canadians.
Thon Jr. heads home while Daniel Klein runs to first. Klein's groundout to third plated the fourth and final run of the inning.
Lefthander Matt Dermody pitched five shutout frames of three-hit ball, striking out three and walking nobody.
Fellow lefty Scott Silverstein finished up with a three-hit shutout over four frames, also with a 3-0 K/BB total.
Dermody's first win and Silverstein's first save allows the C's to celebrate a 4-0 victory over Boise.
