This week's Athlete of the Week: Bluffton’s Easton Blair.
Blair had a great week at the plate, establishing another big bat in the middle of the Tigers' order. https://t.co/zSibqcV7Nr via @newsbanner
Bluffton's Abram Gehrett walks it off for the Tigers to defeat South Adams 7-6. That starts their ACAC title defense.
Starfires put up four runs in the seventh that tied the game and set up for the walkoff.
Bluffton took the lead for good in the fourth inning. Athan King, Chanley Shaw and Abram Gehrett threw a scoreless 5-7th.
Axton Beste with a bomb and Easton Blair tripled in a run.
Norwell got knocks from Cayden Cassel and Noah Clark. Three hits total.
I'm here at Bluffton, where the Tigers are looking to keep things going.
The Tigers (5-3) will face off against Bellmont (2-2) on a beautiful day.
I'll be on Witness Media and provide updates here:
