MONTGOMERY — Abbeville Christian Academy bounced back from a first-game loss to salvage a split Tuesday in the AISA Class A state championship best-of-three series at Montgomery’s Paterson Field, forcing a third game Wednesday.
Jackson Academy won the opener 3-2 in 10 innings, but the Generals bounced back with a 7-4 win in the nightcap. The teams play the decisive third game Wednesday at 3 p.m. at Paterson Field.
The Generals finished the game with six hits, but also had four walks and five batters hit by a pitch. Six different players had a hit with Cole Goodson and Justin Murphy earning a double each. ACA went scoreless in the top of the first inning – leaving two runners on in what would be a costly trend. The teams then combined to score in the next six at-bats with a run each to leave the game tied 3-3.
The Generals answered with a run in the bottom half to retie it at 2-2. With one out, Boone Sumlar was hit by a pitch, but was forced out at second on a comebacker to the pitcher off the bat of Reid Quincy. Hunter Odom, a courtesy runner for Quincy, moved up on a wild pitch. Brandon Early then reached on an infield single and the throw to first went sailing by the first baseman, allowing Odom to score.
A hit batter to Connor Jones and a walk to Sumlar loaded the bases, but the Generals left all three runners stranded following an infield fly out.After the ACA top of the fourth, the run-scoring went silent through the top of the 10th.On the other side, ACA couldn’t get many runners on after the fifth, getting just three walks – one each in the sixth, seventh and ninth.
ACA wrestled the lead back in the bottom of the first. Back-to-back one-out walks to Murphy and Jones got things started. Two batters a wild pitch moved the runners up before Quincy hit a grounder that was bobbled by the shortstop for an error and Murphy scored. Early followed with a two-run double to right field to put the Generals up 3-2.
