Baseball Wins Walk-Off Thriller to Take 8-6 Final

BRIDGEWATER, Va. - Bridgewater baseball did just that; hitting a third walk-off home run in four games, as the Eagles grabbed the win 8-6 over Dickinson Tuesday afternoon at Bridgewater Baseball Field. 

The Eagles won 8-6 in a walk off over Dickinson. 

The Basics 

Score: Bridgewater (BCE) 8, Dickinson (DC) 6 

Records: BCE (4-1), DC (1-2) 

How It Happened 

  • The two costly errors put the Eagles in more jeopardy than they bargained for as the Red Devils cashed in on the errors; however, both teams answered back. DC got the early lead in the top of the first inning off a sac fly and a bloop-single into left field for the 2-0 score. In the bottom of the inning, the Eagles responded with a laced double off Ashton Smith's hot bat to hit in Chandler Valbak and Lucas Bauer. 

  • Then, in a sac bunt opportunity in the fourth, the Red Devils executed to precision knocking in a runner. The Eagles did not go away, adding two runs on the board with a two RBI single hit out to left field from leadoff hitter, Nick Stavros. BCE gained the lead heading into the fifth inning. 

  • Soon after, DC got right back into action scoring in another runner off a lined-single down the middle to make it four apiece in the fifth inning. Later, the Red Devils marked another run in the sixth off a sac fly. In the bottom of the sixth, the Eagles evened the score back up as Valbak lifted one out to right field to bring in Stavros.  

  • In the eighth, the Red Devils would not go away going back up by one with a double.  

  • The ninth inning came around and the Eagles were ready to attack, driving in three runs. Trent Holland started it off with a flyout to right scoring in Bauer. Then, Smith launched a no-doubter over the left field wall to give the Eagles a third walk-off win in four games to start the season. 

Game Notes 

  • Ashton Smith delivered a strong performance against the Red Devils with a walk-off home run and going 2-for-5 on two hits, four RBIs, and one run. 

  • Hunter Covill tallied another win stranding two runners with a strikeout, a popout, and a lineout
