JACKSON, MS- The Huntingdon Hawks rallied for three in the ninth and won a back-and-forth ballgame 7-4 over the Millsaps Majors on Tuesday in Jackson. 

The Hawks scored three times in the ninth with two outs to win the see-saw battle. After a lead-off walk Nathan Harrell got the next two batters out before two singles and a double plated the three runs that proved to be the difference. 

Daniel Ross started for the Majors after getting his usual Sunday start snowed out at Centre. He went the first four innings allowing one run on three hits.

Millsaps erased a 1-0 Hawk lead in the second with back-to-back solo home runs from Blake Littlejohn and William Chenoweth. Both balls were driven out to left field and with the wind blowing out, were well clear of the wall. The Majors would lead 2-1 after two. 

It stayed 2-1 until the fifth when Huntingdon would score three two out runs off West Hammond. The big blow was a single up the middle off the bat of Jordan Freeman who would have four runs batted in on the day. 

The Majors would tie the game with a two run sixth with Samuel Doucet and Andrew Rafferty each singling home runs. Keith Shumaker and Littlejohn would score off the hits to tie the game at 4. 

Each team would have opportunities to score in the seventh, getting runners to third with two out. But the bullpens would put out the respective fires and the game went tied into the ninth when Huntingdon surged ahead for good. 

The loss snaps the Majors three-game win streak as they fall to 12-8. Huntingdon improved to 16-5. The Majors head to Conway, Arkansas this weekend to take on the Hendrix Warriors, first pitch on Saturday is set for 1pm.
