HOW IT HAPPENED
  • The Argos left two in scoring position in the top of the first. Wes Warnock sent a leadoff single up the middle in the bottom of the first and moved to second on a walk to Brett Burrell.

A strikeout ended the frame. 1-0 Delta State after one.
  • West Florida stranded two more in the top of the second after putting runners at the corners with two outs. The Statesmen went in order in the home half of the second. After an hour-and-a-half lightning delay, UWF left another runner on after a two-out single as Logan Cromer tossed an inning-ending strikeout. The Statesmen went in order again in the bottom of the third. 1-0 Delta State after three.
  • West Florida scored six runs on three hits and two errors in the top of the fourth.
