MAJORS COMPLETE SWEEP OF SEWANEE

SEWANEE, TN- Daniel Ross struck out seven over six strong innings and the Majors scored late and held off Sewanee 6-5 to complete a three-game sweep on Sunday. 

Ross went the first six innings, allowing two runs on seven hits to go along with his seven strikeouts. 

The Majors were blanked through the first five innings and trailed 2-1 into the seventh. The Majors broke through against Tiger starter Drew Mancuso with a Keith Shumaker home run in the sixth inning. 

A four-run seventh proved to be the difference in the ball game. Cavan Breland tied the game when he reached on a throwing error that scored Seth Trulock. Logan Patterson then drew a bases-loaded walk and Shumaker brought two home on a single. The Majors added needed insurance in the eighth on a William Chenoweth home run. 

The Tigers struck back with one in the eighth and two in the ninth but Chris Guerin slammed the door shut and preserved the victory. 

The win moves Millsaps to 25-6 on the season and 15-3 in the SAA. The Tigers and Majors are playing a non-conference, seven-inning game this evening to wrap-up the weekend. Millsaps will travel to Birmingham on Thursday to take on Emory in a neutral-site game.
