The Green Wave had loaded the bases with Harrison, Hunter Darby and Bryce Raddatz. Evan West was up to bat facing a 2-2 pitch when Kirk overthrew the catcher. Harrison was already halfway home and slid into homeplate though no one with a ball was close by.

It was a different story Thursday when the Green Wave hosted Magnolia Heights who walked away with an 11-0 win.

The Green Waves have defeated Kirk twice this season with the Friday win.

The Green Wave led 1-0 at the bottom of the first inning on a J.T. Dalrymple run. Kirk took the lead
2-1 in the top of the second inning.

In the bottom of the third, the Green Wave tied the score on a double RBI (run batted in) by Hunter Darby to score Harrison.

The fifth inning was huge for the Green Waves as they scored three runs for the 5-2 lead.

Dalrymple singled and scored on a squeeze play. Chris Pike singled and scored on a passed ball. Harrison walked and scored from third when Bryce Raddatz grounded out to shortstop.

Kirk retaliated in kind at the top of the sixth inning, scoring on three RBI singles to tie the score at five. Kirk had loaded the bases before the third out, but Kirk grounded out to third baseman Darby who threw to first baseman Raddatz to get out of the inning.
