Mountaineers Resilient in 7-5 Win Over Corpus Christi
Corpus Christi first baseman Jon Dearman had a good game, even if his team did not. The Mermen dropped a 7-5 decision to Winchester at Mountaineers Park. Dearman was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double. He drove in 5 runs and scored once. Winchester reliever Jake Simmons picked up the win, while Kevin McGaha took the loss for Corpus Christi. The Mountaineers, now 34-10, know that wins in May count the same as wins in September.

The decisive blow was delivered by Billy Carroll in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a 3-run home run off 22-year old right-handed pitcher Kevin McGaha to win the game for Winchester. The home crowd went nuts.

Winchester manager Mitchell Young was pleased with the team's effort. "Our guys went out there and put good wood on the ball," he said.
