Tigers Erase Five-Run Deficit in Comeback Win

LIVINGSTON, Ala. – West Alabama erased a five-run deficit to notch a 6-5 college baseball win over Spring Hill Wednesday at Tartt Field.
 
The win is the 12th win in the last 13 games for West Alabama, now 22-12. Spring Hill, who has won 15 of its last 18 games, is 19-14.
 
Spring Hill used five hits, including a two-run homer by Joseph Guidry, to score five runs in the top of the second inning. Guidry's homer was third of the season.
 
West Alabama answered with three runs in the bottom of the frame when Justin Booker and Trevor Smeeton drove in runs with singles. Gavin Rogers led off the inning with a double and scored on a Spring Hill throwing error.
 
The Tigers added three more in the bottom of the fifth on a two-run single by Ben Dalke and another RBI single from Booker to take the lead for good. All three runs were unearned due to another Badger error.
 
Landen Davis (1-0), the second of five West Alabama pitchers, earned the win. Davis allowed a run on four hits while striking out seven in 3.2 innings of work. Nick Rathke worked the ninth to earn his sixth save, allowing just an infield single. SHC reliever Will Shaw (1-3) took the loss, allowing three unearned runs on four hits over three innings.
 
Smeeton, Rogers, Booker and Wyatt Ball contributed two hits apiece to a 10-hit Tiger attack.
 
Brennan Fontenot and Guidry had two hits each for Spring Hill, who also rapped out 10 hits. Guidry and Grayson Williams each drove in a pair of runs.
 
West Alabama is scheduled to travel to Delta State for a three-game Gulf South Conference series beginning Friday with a single game at 6 p.m. Spring Hill opens a four-game Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference series against Lemoyne-Owen College on Saturday in Mobile.
