Touchet rallies to third place over
Northport
TOURNEYTOWN.COM
Saul Martinez's two-run single keyed a four-run seventh
inning as Touchet rallied past Northport 10-9 to claim third place in the
Class 1B state tournament Saturday at Parker Field.
The Indians had just two hits in the inning -- Marshall
Byerley also doubled -- but took advantage of a pair of Mustang errors and a
walk.
Martinez finished with two hits and two runs, and Joey
Haggberg was 2-for-2, stole four bases and scored a pair of runs for Touchet,
which finished 16-8 and earned its best state finish since taking second in
Class B in 1997.
Northport, the third-place finisher in this tournament
last year, was lead by Tucker Guglielmino (3-for-5, two triples, 2 runs) and
Casey Cox (3-for-5, three RBI, two runs).
The Mustangs finished the season 23-4.
