McDowell Plays Hero with a 12th Inning Winner in Game One of South Division Championship

Signature Shuckers Comeback Caps Exciting Start to the Playoffs

By Spencer Siegel / Biloxi Shuckers

 

Max McDowell, the last man on the bench, delivered a ground-rule double to win Game One for the Shuckers in the 12th

 

Biloxi Box Score

 

Biloxi got a bases-loaded double from Max McDowell in the 12th inning to secure a 5-3 victory over Pensacola in the first game of their playoff series.

 

The Shuckers racked up 14 hits and four walks on the day, but went 2-14 with runners in scoring position, and could only manage three runs through the first nine innings. Still, they came back from a 3-1 deficit, scoring a run in the 7th and 8th innings to tie the game at three.

 

On the mound, Biloxi pitchers were very good - the main blemishes being home runs surrendered by Zack Brown and Jeff Ames. Biloxi pitchers (Brown, Ames, Olczak, Griep, Ponce) gave up only eight hits and two walks in 12 innings.

 

At the plate, Trent Grisham, Tyler Heineman, Weston Wilson and Blake Allemand each had a pair of hits. Lucas Erceg had the team's only home run.

 

The Shuckers now lead the series 1-0.
