JACKSON-The Belhaven Blazers built a 6-0 lead and held off a late charge from the Millsaps Majors to win 10-6 on Tuesday night at Smith Wills Stadium. 

Belhaven jumped out of the gate quickly, scoring two runs with two outs in the first inning. The Blazers took advantage of a pair of hit batsmen in the inning. 

Belhaven would score three in the second off of Will Edwards who was getting in his usual mid-week routine. 

The Majors  got the bats rolling in the seventh, scoring a pair of runs. Kevin Wall, who went 3-3 on the night, singled home Samuel Doucet and Adam Bice to make it a 6-2 ball game. The Blazers  responded, scoring four in the home half of the seventh on a bases clearing single and error. 

The Majors countered, tacking on four more in the eighth. Wes Perkins  singled and a run came into score on an error. Keith Shumaker would come into score on a wild pitch and Wall singled again to bring home another run. The Majors cut the lead to 10-6 but could get no closer. 

The win drops the Majors to 26-9 on the year and Belhaven improved to 32-16. The Blazers also wrapped up the 2013 Maloney Series trophy given annually to the team with the best record between Belhaven, Mississippi College and Millsaps. 

The Majors will look to rebound on Friday against Rhodes with their sights set on a regular season SAA crown. First pitch from Memphis on Friday is set for 3pm.
