5-12 - Comstock 5 - Hackett 4

The Colts came together to put two good ballgames together over a pumped up and ready Hackett baseball team last night coming from behind to win the first game 4-3 on a walk off wild pitch and breaking a tie ball game in the 6th inning of the second game to win 5-4. Mason Groll pitched a 7 strikeout complete first game and drew a walk in the 7th that proved to be the tying run on a Shane Easter drive to right. Easter came in to pitch in the second game shutting the Irish out over four innings while Brad Clements big, one out double brought Mikey Derhammer in with the go ahead run. Ryan Eames drove in three runs on the night and gave the Colts three great innings on the mound.
