In the first game, Kinston's Matt Williams earned the complete game victory, allowing four hits over seven innings. Williams walked four and struck out five.
Salem's Angelo Encarnacion doubled home Kevin Polcovich in the third inning, but Joe Ronca hit into a double play to spoil a big inning.
Marc Marini hit a sacrifice fly and Chop Pough hit an RBI double in the second inning to give Kinston an early 2-0 lead. John Cotton drove in a third-inning run with an infield hit and Juan Andujar hit his third homer of the season in the fourth inning to finish out the scoring for Kinston.
