The Hays Larks take advantage of two walks and a wild pitch as they rally for four runs with two outs in the fifth inning to beat the Colorado Sox 7-4 in game two of their non-league doubleheader last night at Larks Park. The Larks took the opener 6-3.

Cody Gougler, who drove in three in the second game, hit a two-run single in the big inning for the final margin. Starter Connor Beer gave up four runs on four hits in the third. Eastern Oklahoma’s Nick Goza allowed just one hit over the final 2 1/3 innings for the win.

In the opener, the Larks score two in the first on a Cam Brown 2-run homer then tack on three in the fourth. Chandler-Gilbert’s Hunter Herdt picks up the win going five innings and allowing just two runs on seven hits while striking out six and walking none.

The wins move Hays to 12-5 on the year. They go for the series sweep Friday night when the two play a seven-inning game. Admission is free thanks to Eagle Communication.
