Delta Devils Falter in Rubber Match

MONTGOMERY – The Mississippi Valley State baseball team suffered a debilitating 11-3 loss to the Hornets of Alabama State.
 
Cecil Hodges took the mound for the Delta Devils and in 4.1 innings gave up four hits, six runs, while recording one strikeout.

Defensively both teams were strong and played a near perfect contest, both tallied two errors each. Hits proved to be the deciding factor as MVSU recorded six to ASU's 11.
 
Mississippi Valley took an early lead in the top of the first, scoring two runs, while holding Alabama State scoreless in the same inning. Arrington Smith sent a beautiful spiral ball over the fence for a homerun. Drew Wheeler scored on the play as well.
 
The Hornets scored one in the second, three in the third, five in the fifth and two in the eighth. The Delta Devils were able to score an additional run in the top of the ninth. Chris McWright took advantage of an error by the second baseman, to reach first and send Smith home.

Mississippi Valley will travel to Starkville, Mississippi, to take on the Bulldogs of Mississippi State University on March 22. First pitch is scheduled for 6:30 pm.
