JACKSON- Will Edwards fanned nine and went the distance as the Majors run ruled the Oglethorpe Stormy Petrels 11-1 in seven innings on Friday night. 

Edwards settled in after a rocky first inning that saw the Petrels score their lone run on a pair of singles. He was dominant over the next six innings, scattering just three hits, striking out nine and walking nobody. 

The Majors' bats came alive in the second inning. Samuel Doucet singled, Isaac Glenn was hit by a pitch and a sacrifice by Kevin Wall set the Majors up in prime position. They were given a gift when Doucet was balked in and Glenn scored a few pitches later on a ground out off the bat of Will Lawrence. 

The Majors blew it open with a three-run fourth. Jerrod Myers had an rbi single, Keith Shumaker hit a towering sacrifice fly and Wes Perkins singled as the Majors went up 6-1. It was 8-1 after a Stephen Gates single, as the Majors team effort continued on Friday night. Four Majors had a multi-hit game and three had multi-rbi games. 

The Majors ended this one early, putting up three in the seventh. The knockout blow was a walk-off walk to Kevin Wall with the bases loaded. The Majors patience paid off in the seventh, scoring three times on just one hit. 

Edwards gets the win to improve to 5-1 on the year. The Majors now stand at 17-7 and have run their win streak to five games. 

Tomorrow will bring games two and three of the series as the teams have moved the games up once again to avoid rain. First pitch is now set for 11AM for game one.
