The Diplomats cut the margin to a run with a two-run sixth, but Drew Doyle came in and tossed 3 2/3 scoreless innings in relief to nail down the victory while securing his fourth save of the season.
Riley Grohowski collected the win, surrendering two runs over 5 1/3 frames.
Jack Wallis drove in the first run of the contest for the Fords with a sacrifice fly in the opening frame. Matt Dahl delivered an RBI-single in the second to expand the lead to 2-0.
Haverford will now face top-seeded Johns Hopkins in Baltimore on Thursday as the tournament enters a double elimination phase. The Fords were swept by the Blue Jays in a doubleheader earlier this season.
