Christian County 9 Marshall County 8

We were supposed to carry the Trigg County/UHA baseball game on the radio today, but Mother Nature had other ideas.  Instead, we moved a couple of blocks down the street to carry the Christian County/Marshall County game.  And are we glad we did.

Josh Hilling singled home Matt Reed with the winning run in the bottom of the seventh inning to cap off a wild finish and send Christian County past Marshall County 9-8.

The Colonels entered the seventh inning down 8-2.  They scored seven runs on four hits and were walked five times in the final inning.  The Colonels scored eight times in their last at bat Tuesday in a 12-6 win over Trigg County and scored seven more times in their final at bat today.

Daron Morris hit a sac fly in the seventh to begin the comeback.  The senior had two hits and two RBIs on the day.  Matt Reed drove in two with a single, and P.C. Holmes scored Jake Glass on a ground out to tie the game.  After Cole Isom drew a walk, Hilling singled to center to score Reed with the game-winner.

Hilling pitched three innings of relief to pick up the win on the mound.  He allowed one hit and one run.

Jordan Williams had three of Christian County's 10 hits.

Tyler O'Daniel and Cody Forsythe each had two hits for Marshall County, who fell to 20-3 with the loss.

Christian County improves to 19-9 with the wild win.
