The Daredevils are currently on a 3-game winning streak and are ranked 9th in the country~!
The Outer Banks Daredevils rallied from a four run deficit to take down the Edenton Steamers 7-6 - clinching the first half of the Coastal Plain League North Division Thursday night. Dylan Petrich (Texas A&M) came through with two clutch RBI doubles for the Outer Banks (17-8), the first to bring them within a run in the sixth, and the second to tie the game in the eighth.
After giving up four first inning runs and trailing 6-2 heading in to the sixth - Petrich brought the Daredevils back. After a leadoff single by Chandler Snell (Georgia College and State) and a walk by Tyler Stubblefield (Kennesaw State), Petrich smoked a ball to the right field gap - scoring both runs.
Two batters later, Justin Schumer (UNC-Asheville) chopped an infield single in-between short and third, allowing Petrich to score and making the score 6-5.
Still trailing 6-5 in the eighth, Bud Fuller (Georgia Southwestern St.) came on in relief for the Steamers (11-14) and struggled with his command. After walking Stubblefield on four pitches, Fuller fell behind in the count to Petrich. With a 3-2 count, Petrich slapped a line-drive down the first base line that went into the right field corner - scoring Stubblefield and giving Petrich his second double of the night.
