JACKSON- Will Edwards battled through five plus innings and Harper Grier got the save as the Majors defeated Centre 6-3 on Saturday morning. 

Edwards worked his way out of big trouble in the first, allowing just two unearned runs after Centre had the bases loaded and nobody out. The Colonels put up the two spot, getting just one hit. 

The Majors put up a crooked number in the home half of the second. Annon Etheridge singled home Kevin Wall and William Chenoweth cleared the bases with a wall-scraping triple. Chenoweth came home on a wild pitch and the Majors grabbed a 4-2 lead they would not let go. 

In the third, Wall would ground into a fielder's choice to bring home Wes Perkins. Wall made a heads up play on the base paths, purposely getting into a lengthy rundown on a steal to allow Samuel Doucet to score. The Majors would lead 6-2 after three. 

Edwards and Grier stranded 10 Colonels between the two over nine innings. The two righties combined for nine strike outs while scattering eight hits. 

The Majors end their three-game skid and sit at 13-7 on the season and 5-3 in conference. Tomorrow's game is set for an 11AM first pitch at nearby Smith-Wills Stadium.
