Tadcaster took the lead inside the first two minutes through Jacob Day, before a Scott Allison penalty leveled the scores on 18 minutes.
Conor Tannin then gave Workington their first lead, before a goal from Bokinji Lebrun cancelled it out heading into the last 20 minutes.
However, Tinnion added his second on 79 minutes and Millenic Alli secured the win with a 90th minute goal.
“We rode our luck; I think it’s fair to say we weren’t brilliant,” Tinnion told the club’s official website.
“Sometimes you just need a bit of that.
“Myself and Brock’s clearances really should be goals on any other day but we managed two score two and build on it, which is credit to the lads.”
