MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- On Sunday, the Millsaps College baseball team returned to Satuffer Field on the campus of Rhodes College to wrap up a Southern Athletic Association (SAA) series with the Lynx. 

The Majors scored the opening two runs of the game, and led 4-1 at one point. Unfortunately, the Rhodes offense dominated the middle innings en route to a 16-5 run-rule victory. 

After this weekend's series the Millsaps record stands at 4-18 overall. They are 2-6 in SAA play.

With the 2-1 series win, the Lynx improved their mark to 12-12 overall and 5-4 in the conference. 

How It Happened
The Majors offense got things going early on Sunday afternoon.

Brennan Ducote opened up the top of the 1st with a 1-out single, and he came around to score on Mason Little's triple to left-center. A Jimmy Fondren RBI single scored Little to give Millsaps a 2-0 lead. 

Rhodes answered with a RBI groundout in the bottom of the inning, but the Majors went right back to work in the 2nd. 

Keaton Page and Chris Hart led off the inning with back-to-back singles. They both advanced into scoring position on a Jimmy Johnstone bunt. After a Rhodes pitching change, Ducote came through with a RBI groundout, and Fondren followed with his second RBI single of the game to put Millsaps up 4-1. 

Unfortunately the Lynx dominated the middle innings. Rhodes scored 6 runs in the bottom of the 2nd, 3 in the bottom of the 3rd and another 6 spot in the 5th to grab a 16-4 lead. 

Millsaps put a run up in the 6th on a Johnstone RBI single, but Rhodes held on down the stretch to secure the 16-5 run-rule win.
