Axmen win with a walk-off against River Turtles, while Doughboys drop one late
Tri-Cities, TN — A late-inning blunder would be deemed too much for the Doughboys, falling 6-5 to Bluefield. Doughboys leading 5-3 in the 7th in front of another packed house on the mound, Bryce McCain bringing the juice when he strikes out Michael Lucarelli looking.
Top of the 8th Doughboys Kyler Procter goes into the hole and throws out Sam Silas at 1st base in the top of the 9th. The Ridge runners Jaden Brown on a throwing error base Alexander Wright and Tre Keels score and Bluefield would take the lead and hold on to win 6-5. The loss puts the Doughboys down to 1-5 and they will look for a series split against Bluefield on Wednesday.
