Millsaps College --   A brisk, north wind in tandem with a frigid cold front that has positioned itself over the Southeast this week did all but freeze the bats of a hot Millsaps baseball team on Tuesday afternoon as the Majors defeated cross-town rival Mississippi College 12-8 in a Cowboy Maloney Series game.   The Majors rapped out 12 base hits with 5 hits going for extra bases en route to a 12 run performance.  Millsaps has now outscored its opponents 103 to 38 in nine games played this season. 
     Junior second baseman K.K. Aldridge was 2 for 3 on the afternoon, while middle infield partner Matt Yglesias was 2 for 5.  Sophomore third baseman Scott Staines was also 2 for 5, including a three run triple in the 2nd inning.  For Millsaps, Junior pitcher Will Selman picked up his first win of the year as he threw 6 2/3 innings in relief of starter Stephen Kirkpatrick.  Selman gave up 6 hits and two runs, while MC's John Jay suffered the loss as he gave up 6 runs off 6 hits in three innings of relief for the Choctaws.
     With the win, Millsaps improves to 9-0 overall and 6-0 in the SCAC.  MC falls to 7-5.
Millsaps will host Belhaven on Wednesday afternoon at 2:00 p.m. as the Majors look to garner another win in the Cowboy Maloney Series.
