In the third inning, Moore walked, Wagner was hit by a pitch, and Williams singled to load the bases. Mark Anderson and Howard each doubled in two runs.

Green 5, Eastern 3

BEAVER - The Green Bobcats must like keeping their fans in suspense.

For the third straight game, the Bobcats rallied late to pull out a win and remain unbeaten in the Southern Ohio Conference with a 5-3 victory over the Eastern Eagles Friday.

Green trailed 3-0 after five innings, then scored four times in the sixth inning and once in the seventh to get the win.

"Eastern deserves credit for playing a fine ball game. Fortunately, we were able to capitalize on some errors late in the game and get the win," Green coach Dave Shoupe said.

Green moves to 10-0 on the season and 8-0 in the SOC.

John Dawson got the win and is now 3-0 on the year. Brad Dehart went 2-for-4 and Odie Kelley drove in two runs to lead the Bobcats offense.
