Brighton Braves 4, AlThomas Athletics 3
Another incredible battle between these two teams, and the Braves walk off with a win!
Game remained scoreless through 3. Lambert drives in a run with 2 outs in the top of the 4th. Uberti answers with a solo homer to right, tying the game 1-1 in the bottom half.
Braves plate a run in the 5th on a bloop by Lee, scoring Huddy. But in the top of the 6th, the A's put men on 2nd & 3rd with 1 out. Wheeler drives a bomb to the gap in left center, the tying run scores, but the Braves cut down the would-be-go-ahead run with an 8-6-2 relay.
A's score 1 more in the 7th when a wild pitch gets through the gate with a man on 3rd. In the bottom half, Kerby leads off with a BB, Coscione bunts him over, Lee drives in the run & advances to second, and then Robb delivers the walkoff single to shallow left.
Braves take 2-1 series lead. |
