Leach, Glass hurl an we =Sophomore southpaw Trey Glass retired all seven batters he faced to put down a Bessemer City rally and lead Kings Mountain's Mountaineers to a 7-5 victo- in a non-conference base- ball game Friday night at Lancaster Field. Glass relieved starter, freshman Ryan Leach, in the bottom of the fifth. Leach peared sailing along to his LA win of the season with a 5-0 lead but hit a wild spell and the Yellow Jackets rallied for five runs to tie the score. To Leach’s credit, he gave up only four hits and didn’t give up an earned run. An error opened the floodgate but a walk, wild pitch and passed ball contributed. With two outs, a bases- loaded walk put the Yellow Jackets on the scoreboard and then Brandon Lambert and Daniel Styers delivered back-to-back two-run sin- gles. Glass, who improved to 2- 0, came on to record the final out of the inning and then sat the Yellow Jackets down in order in the sixth and seventh innings. _ Tyler Leach walked, stole second and scored the win- ning run on a single by Ronnie Wilson in the bottom of the fifth. Glass added an insurance run in the sixth when he cracked a solo home run.
