Baseball splits with Hendrix

CONWAY, Ark. – The Millsaps baseball team split an afternoon double at Hendrix College today.

In game one, the Warriors jumped out with five runs in the first to pull away from the Majors for a 6-2 win. The Majors scored two in the third but came up empty in their other at-bats. Jeremy Aliff drove in Drew Leonard with a triple to left center. Josh Ordeneaux drove in Aliff on the next at-bat to round out the Majors' scoring.

Millsaps got down 2-1 in the second game, but came back to score four runs in the top of the ninth to take game two 5-4.

Stephen Gates led the inning with a single past short into left field. Will Elmore sent him to second with a sacrifice bunt. Trey Rountree and Jeremy Aliff drew the walks to load the bases with two out. A balk from Gabe Levin sent the first run home to tie the game at two and then an error on the first baseman scored the second run, plating Rountree.

Ryan Zemke stole second to set up two in scoring position for Jules Roussel to drive in two with a single to center to put Millsaps up 5-2 going into the bottom of the ninth. The Warriors scored two in the home half of the inning, but were unable to complete the comeback as Jason Riggins held firm getting the final two outs to secure the win for the Majors.

The Majors and Warriors will meet tomorrow afternoon for one more beginning at noon.
