Blair Oaks Eliminates Sullivan In Extra Innings

Sullivan rallied once, rallied twice and were in position for a dramatic victory Saturday.

Tied 6-6 against Blair Oaks In the bottom of the seventh with one out and the winning running run 90 feet away, the Eagles were unable to push it across. Two innings later, the Falcons busted the game open with a seven-run inning and secured a 13-6 victory in the first round of the Class 4 District 9 tournament.

Down 4-1 and 6-4, Sullivan showed plenty of resiliency. Cody McKinney’s two-run triple in the fourth tied the game and electrified the crowd. When the Falcons went up 6-4 in the fifth, Sullivan again mounted a comeback.
