Game 3-Score by Innings:
In game 2 (4th of the series), it seemed as a new Indians baseball team came out of the locker-room as they came out in the first inning and the bats were on fire, nothing the Hurricanes pitcher Jason Tate threw got by an Indians batter.
In the first inning, the Indians would score 7-runs and all earned. I was pleasantly the way the Indians came out in game 4 of the series (second of the double-header) with a bounce in their step after getting shelled in game 3 (first of double-header).
Sophomore Breylon Emory (North Augusta) got the start on the mound and went 5.1 innings, giving up 6-hits, 6-runs, 5- earned, he walked 4-batters, earned 6-strike-outs, while facing 21 batters.
After coming out after 5.1 innings, freshman Ryan Rowe (Newberry, SC) came into the game pitched 1.2 innings, giving up 1-hit, 1-run, 1-earned run, 1-walk, 1-strike-out, while facing 6-batters.
The Indians were hot at the plate in game 4 and the two Indians lead the way, sophomore Oliver Santos (Santo Domingo, DR) was 4-5 with 3-RBI's and freshman Bryan Parsons (Spartanburg,SC) 4-5, 2-RBI's.
Also hot at the plate for the Indians:
Freshman-Jayvon Sanders (Rembert, SC) 3-4, with a home-run and 3-RBI's.

Freshman-Korey Ahrens (Newberry,SC) 2-3, 2-RBI's

GAME 4- SCORE BY INNINGS:
I have to mention that sophomore Tracy Asbill was the hottest bat for the Indians this weekend as he went 8-12 hitting .667 with 5-RBI's and a home-run. In game 1, he only had 1-at bat.
The Indians record now stands at 23-21 and 13-11.
Louisburg College now sits at 16-12 overall, I do not have their Region X record.
