HOW IT HAPPENED
  • Marr got the Cougars on the board in the second, launching a 2-2 pitch into the stratosphere down the right field line to give CofC an early 1-0 lead.
  • The junior catcher delivered once again in the third after a 21-minute rain delay, sending the first pitch after the restart over the wall in right for his second homer of the day.

  • The Tribe would take a 3-2 lead in the top of the eighth on a solo shot from Tyler Solomon.
  • Charleston wasted little time in the ninth, putting the tying run on first with a Marr infield single before Mathis ripped a double down the left field line to put two in scoring position with no outs.
  • Tanner Steffy then sent a 1-1 pitch to deep right to score Marr from third and tie the game at 3-3.
  • Cam Dean followed on the next pitch with a soft fly to shallow center, allowing pinch-runner McLendon Sears to scamper home to score the winning run.
