A four-run sixth inning proved to be the difference as Yutan/Mead/Ashland-Greenwood came away with a 5-1 win over Wayne/Wakefield in baseball action Thursday at Hank Overin Field.
The visitors got a run in the third to take the lead, but Wayne/Wakefield came back to tie the game in the fifth. Caden Korth reached on an error, moved to third on a Tanner DeBoer single and came home when Tyler Lutt reached on an error with two out to tie the game at 1-1.
The visitors reclaimed the lead in the sixth, using two errors and a hit to plate the go-ahead runs and come away with the win.
DeBoer, Korth and Payten Gamble each had hits for the 6-11 Blue Devils. Lutt went the distance in the losing effort, scattering five hits and three walks while striking out two and giving up just one earned run.
Wayne/Wakefield is scheduled to close out the regular season on Monday at home against Arlington in a 4:30 p.m. matchup. They begin district play on Friday, May 5.
