Pike County Wins

Pike County defeated the Thomaston-Upson All Stars 5-1 to force a deciding game Friday.

Pike County held a 2-0 lead going to the bottom of the 4th and took advantage of an error to plate three unearned runs. A bases loaded opportunity for the All Stars was lost in the top of the 5th inning when Pike County was able to turn a double play thanks to a shoestring catch of a fly ball in right field and a quick throw behind the runner at first.

Nathan Pollard, Clark Daniel, Payton Butterfield, Dalton Richmond and Zack Davis had the only hits of the game for the All Stars. Zach Gooden pitched five innings and took the loss, he will not be available to pitch in Friday’s game.

The game will start at 7 pm at the Little League field across from Upson EMC.
