Any coach will tell you that a win is a win and the varsity baseball teams at Starr's Mill, Fayette County and Landmark Christian School are all winning, both by the slimmest of margins and by blowouts.
Starr's Mill hosted the Glynn Academy Terror on Wednesday and won the first game 1-0 in an incredible pitching duel between the Panthers' Nick Terry and the Terror's Cletus Jessup. Terry gave up five hits in the game while Jessup only gave up four hits. Fortunately for Starr's Mill, one of their hits was a home run by Joey Lewis. It was Lewis' second home run in his last three at bats. Jessup struck out 11 batters in the game while Terry struck out 10.
The second game was the exact opposite. Starr's Mill jumped on Glynn Academy in the first inning with a two run home run from Lewis and then added 15 more runs in the second. Kory Ison had five RBI in the inning, while Philip Shell, Ryan Lockett and Ben Baker each drove in two runs and Andrew Robinson, Jimmy Tanner and Carter Scurry each drove in one.
Robinson pitched a complete game shutout in three innings, giving up one hit and striking out three batters.
"We're really tearing it up in the second game of these doubleheaders," said Coach Brent Moseley, citing his team's success in the season ending doubleheader against Jonesboro (18-0) and their win in the first round of the state playoffs against Riverdale (12-0). The Panthers (24-4) are excited to have made it
