Austin tied the game at 4-4 in the bottom of the seventh when Phillip Zynda lined an RBI chopper into right field. The Packers had the bases loaded with one out, but AJ Mueller grounded into a double play.
Hunter Guyette had an RBI double and AJ Mueller had a sacrifice fly in the sixth for Austin.
The game went through two 30-minute weather delays before it was finally called.
