Hoke Edged 4-3 On Walk The winning run walked home in the last inning Saturday as Red Springs edged out the Bucks 4-.J in a non-conference game. a With the score tied, two men out, the bases loaded and a two-three count on the batter, Hoke pitcher Kddie Ramsey threw that fourth ball. "We hit the hall well," Bucks coach Terry Grier said. "But we hit to them and they made the plays we didn't." Hoke had seven hits and five errors for the game. Grier attributed many of the mistakes to inexperience, as he emptied his bench to play his entire squad. "Our play was erratic," Grier said. "We have had five errors, due mainly to the fact that we had lots of young players in the game." Red Springs had only three hits, and one error. Hoke's runs came in the first inning when Donnic Monroe led off with a triple, a line drive into left center field. He was scored on a single by Curtis Jones, who moved on to second on a sacrifice by Noah Hendrix. David McNeill scored Jones with a triple that bounced off the center field wall. Then McNeill came home on a single hit by Mike Shaw to wrap up the Bucks' runs. Red Springs scored in the first inning on two singles and again in the second on a bad throw to first from the catcher, Elvis Buie. In the fifth inning, a double play situation turned into a Red Springs-run when a .groaafer hit 'to- dwjrtSAtop Timmy Ross boujfced off KdfTCot Into die outfield. t . Red Springs broke the tie in the bottom of the seventh inning.
