JACKSON, Miss. – The Millsaps baseball team fought back but were unable to overtake Belhaven in Game Two of the Cowboy Maloney Series on Wednesday. The Majors were defeated, 19-6 at Twenty Field.

Millsaps (13-12) and Belhaven (11-9) utilized nine pitchers each and combined for 33 hits and 25 runs. The Blazers garnered 20 hits, while the Majors accumulated 13 base knocks.

Graduate Branyan Bounds (2-for-3) doubled twice, walked, scored a run and tallied an RBI. Senior Jackson Ware batted 2-for-2 with a run, RBI and walk.

Junior Evan Scott finished 2-for-3 and freshman Degan Hensley ended the game 2-for-4 with an RBI.

The Blazers jumped out to a 7-0 advantage with three runs in the first, one run in the second and three runs in the third.

Bounds doubled in the third and was batted home by a Hensley single to make it 7-1 in the bottom of the third.

Belhaven answered with a run in the top of the fourth before the Majors scored twice in the bottom of the frame. Millsaps loaded the bases and junior Bradley Pelle recorded a sacrifice fly, which plated redshirt sophomore Will Norris. Ware followed with a single bringing senior Case Page home.
