Greeneville Flyboys News Release
PULASKI, Va. - After a rainout Saturday, the Greeneville Flyboys slugged their way past the Pulaski River Turtles, 11-5, in a seven-inning game Sunday to secure a season sweep. The Flyboys (14-6) defeated the River Turtles (11-10) for the third time in eight days, using a grand slam from right fielder Reid Haire (2-for-4, 5 RBI) and shutdown pitching from right-hander JD Hay (2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 K) to defeat Pulaski. After his bases-clearing triple at Johnson City on Friday, Haire now has two extra-base hits and seven RBIs with the bases loaded in Greeneville's past two games.
The Flyboys led wire-to-wire, taking a 3-0 lead in the third inning and holding a 5-2 advantage before Haire's grand slam gave them a 9-2 lead in the fifth. While Pulaski responded with three runs in the bottom of the inning to trim Greeneville's advantage to four runs, Hay shut down Pulaski's potent offense in the final two innings while the Flyboys added two insurance runs to seal the win.
