They would tie it up at five in the seven. So we go to the extra innings one extra inning in all-star play so in the eighth. They would just play that one extra inning as Brendan Ruiz makes the final out of the ballgame as the all-city classic ends.

In a tie at five apiece, the all-city classics are always a lot of fun, especially for those participating well. The summer normally provides a lull in high school sports.
