BIG INNING BOOSTS BELHAVEN PAST UAM, 11-2

MONTICELLO – Belhaven scored seven runs in the top of the fourth inning to highlight its 11-2 win over the University of Arkansas at Monticello baseball team on Tuesday at Weevils Field.

Belhaven starter Brandon McHenry (3-1) kept the Boll Weevils (9-12) out of scoring position through the first five innings, including three perfect innings, before allowing a pair of back-to-back RBI singles in the bottom of the sixth from juniors Fernando Garcia and Tanner Laran.

The Blazers (23-7) scored one run in the first, one in the third, seven in the fourth and two in the ninth. Leadoff batter Tyler Wrinkle paced Belhaven offensively, going 4-for-6 at the plate with two RBI and three runs scored. Lake Eiland, Anthony Doss and Derek Tortorich had two hits each. Junior Chase Stokes led UAM with a pair of singles.

Sophomore Brent Noble (2-1) was saddled with the loss after allowing six runs off nine hits with two strikeouts and one walk in the first 3.1 innings. BU’s McHenry went eight innings, and allowed two runs (one earned) off four hits with eight strikeouts and one walk.

The Boll Weevils return to Gulf South Conference action this weekend at home against Arkansas Tech for a three-game series beginning with a double-header on Saturday, March 26 starting at noon.
