GREENEVILLE, Tenn. - A five-RBI night from Brock Daniels (Missouri) willed the Flyboys to their fifth straight win, knocking off Elizabethton 11-1 on Saturday, June 25.
The River Riders scored their lone run of the night in emphatic fashion, as Avery Owusu-Asiedu (SIU-Edwardsville) hit his third home run of the season over the right field wall in the top of the third inning, giving Elizabethton (10-12) the 1-0 lead.
The Flyboys (11-11) answered with a pair of home runs of their own in the bottom of the fourth inning. Daniels hit his first home run of the season with a two-run shot that snuck over the right field wall to give Greeneville a 2-1 lead. One batter later, Myles Smith (UC Irvine) hit his second home run of the season, a no-doubter over the right field wall to extend the lead to 3-1.
Both teams were silent for the rest of the middle innings, until Greeneville dropped six runs to their total in the bottom of the sixth. After David Bishop (TCU) and Smith drew back-to-back walks, back-to-back singles from Ian Daugherty (Oklahoma State) and Jack O'Reilly (Villanova) scored the two and made it a 5-1 game. Cian Sahler (Fordham) drew a bases loaded walk to score Daugherty and push the advantage to 6-1. Saborn Campbell (Stanford) got in on the action with an RBI single to score O'Reilly and make it 7-1.
