Â
The Redhawks reached the 30-win milestone for the fourth time in the last five seasons with the series sweep of Little Rock behind 13 hits and 14 runs and a strong outing from RHP Sam Heyman (6-6).Â
Â
Heyman picked up his sxith victory of the season with a 5.1 inning performance, allowing just three earned runs on five hits and struck out a pair of Trojans over 22 hitters faced.Â
Â
The story of the day was the Redhawks' monstrous third inning where they recorded 11 hits, 13 runs, as they sent 18 hitters to the plate.Â
Â
Trailing 3-0 to start the home half, a leadoff single from catcher Shea McGahan, a single through the right side from Carson Schrack, and a walk from Brooks Kettering loaded the bases for senior Michael Mugan.Â
Â
Mugan blasted his ninth home run of the season to right field recording his second grand slam of the season to give SEMO a 4-3 lead. Back-to-back hits from Gunnar Doyle and Bryce Cannon continued the rally as Cole Warehime traded places with Cannon to drive both Redhwaks in to make it 6-3.Â
Â
An RBI double by Ty Stauss and a single from Andrew Ramirez drove in two more runs for the Redhawks to make it 8-3. The Redhawks would score five more runs in the frame to take a 13-3 lead into the fourth inning.Â
Â
LR would add a run on a pinch-hit, solo home run by Aiden McGinnis to make it 13-4 Redhawks in the sixth inning. Short stop Brooks Kettering stepped to the plate after a pinch-hit, hit-by-pitch by senior Caleb Corbin.Â
Â
Kettering roped a double the opposite way as Corbin came around to score from first base to give SEMO a 10-run lead going into the seventh inning.Â
Â
RHP Eddie White shut the door as the Redhawks picked up the 10-run, seven inning victory in the regular season finale.Â
