"We just didn 't get the hits when we needed them in the first game, " said ECCC head coach Jake Yarborough. "We played good defense. Their pitcher did a good job and kept us down. We couldn't ever get anything going against him. You 've got to hit the ball to score runs. Especially if they are throwing strikes, you've got to put it in play. "In the second game, they had some hits, but we made errors and should have been out of the (fifth) inning. When you make that .· many errors, you give those guys extra at-bats, it makes our · pitchers pitch more pitches, and it puts them on base and eventually they're going to score. You can't do that to your pitcher. You've got to make plays behind him and give him some support. We definitely shot ourselves in the foot." Wilson had two doubles and a single for ECCC in the second game. Marcus Davis had three singles. Ross Pine added a pair of doubles. Holmes got two doubles from Spann and a pair of singles from Matt Buchanan . Cody Savell (3-3) took the loss, and Kelby Green recorded the win with relief from Caleb Cain.
