How It Happened

North Greenville charged out of the gate in the final game of the series on Tuesday.  A single and stolen base resulted in their first two runs in the bottom of the first inning.  They finished up the bottom of the first with a home run by Holladay to put them on top 5-0.

The Warriors countered in the top of the second inning.  With one out, Josh Galloway walked and then advanced to second on a ground out by Parker Pillsbury.  Dawson Posick followed with a walk to put two on and bring Sawyer Price up to bat.  Price singled to center field and a misplay in the outfield allowed Galloway to come home and put the Warriors down 5-1.

Trailing 6-1 in the top of the third inning, the Warriors continued to fight at the plate.  Chance Fogel led off the inning with a deep triple down the right field line.  Ty King Richards followed with a single that brought Fogel in to score.

North Greenville maintained the pressure at the plate as they scored eight more times in the top of the fifth inning to put their lead to 14-2.  The Crusaders went on to win the game 16-2.
