They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 10-9 win over the Southeastern Mustangs. The high-scoring effort was just what the Red Devils needed considering they were shut out in their previous contest.
The team relied heavily on Lincoln Doner, who got on base in four of his five plate appearances with two stolen bases, one run, and one RBI. Jeffery Barnes also deserves some recognition as he snagged his first stolen base of the season.

As for Southeastern, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 1-3.
