MAJORS TAME TIGERS

JACKSON- Molly Tyner threw a complete game, allowing just five hits and two runs in a 10-2 Majors win over the Tigers of Sewanee. 

The Majors gave Tyner run support early, scoring four times in the first. Millsaps capitalized on some Tiger miscues, scoring on an error and a Katie Birdwell hit by pitch. Emily Collins drove in Kaitlyn Doles with a sac fly and Tiffany Havard drove in sister Savannah Havard with a single.

The Majors would add four more in the third. Sierrah Martinez hit a sac fly, Caroline Thompson doubled to score Logan Dukes and Abbie Joiner cleared the bases with a single.

The Majors would send everyone home an inning early after Dukes and Martinez had a run scoring single and double, respectfully to put the run rule in to place.

The win puts the Majors at 17-17 on the year and 8-11 in conference as the teams headed into game two. 

The Majors picked up right where they left off in the first game, erupting for five runs in the first inning. Doles, Julie Underwood, Darlynda Wilson and Sierrah Martinez all drove in runs to support Kaite Birdwell in the circle. 

Doles, Martinez and Wilson would team up again to drive in runs in the Majors' three-run third to wrap up their scoring. 

Birdwell was dominant for the Majors, going the distance and scattering three hits. Birdwell allowed just one run while striking out six and walking nobody. 

The Majors now sit at 18-17 going into the final home weekend of the regular season. The Hendrix Warriors come to town for four game beginning Saturday with a noon first pitch.
