Cash's Dramatic Grand Slam Lifts Eagles In Game One

Clarksville, Ark.- Ethan Cash blasted a dramatic grand slam in the bottom of the seventh inning to complete a 8-6 come-from-behind win against UT Dallas in game one Saturday. Isaac Price, Jackson Baker and Dru Didway had back-to-back-to-back singles setting the stage for Cash’s clutch hit. Cash delivered a shot with a full count over the right field fence to send the Eagles into a March Madness type frenzy. The Comets led 4-0 after the three innings, but Dru Didway singled in a run in the fourth to make it 4-1. In the fifth, Price and Baker had RBI singles to make it 4-3. The next inning, Kagen Kennedy had a sacrifice fly to bring the Eagles within 6-4. A combined three home runs were hit in the game as windy conditions aided the long balls. Price went 3-for-4 while Cash had a team-best four RBI. Starting pitcher Isaac Pelts threw a complete game to receive the win. He struck out seven and did not issue a walk.
