Partons Pull Off Thrilling 2-1 Win in Extras
For the home crowd, it was a thrilling walk-off win.

The Dollywood Partons needed 11 innings to beat the Kalamazoo Comets, 2-1, at Dolly Parton Ballpark. Franklin Cortes, for one, had a fine performance. He went 2 for 3 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks. The Comets fall to 5-7 and continue their uninspiring start to the 2023 season.

The Partons got a clutch hit from shortstop Jim Henkemeyer. In the bottom of the 11th, he delivered a run-scoring single to win the game for the Partons.

"That was fun, that was just good baseball," said Cortes.
