Crimson Tide falls to Buccaneers

Haughton’s Christian Turner’s two hits, including a two-run home run in the bottom of the sixth, helped power the Bucs to an 8-1 baseball win over the Minden Crimson Tide Monday.

Haughton took control of the game in the bottom of the first, using Tide errors to jump out to a 4-0 lead. From there, right-hander Justin Adkison held Minden in check over three and two-thirds innings, striking out four and giving up three walks.

Minden’s Jaxon Smith took the tough-luck loss, going four innings and allowing only one earned run of the six scored during his time on the mound. Bryson Ranger led the Tide at the plate, going two-for-three and driving in his team’s only run.

Turner and Seth Jorstad each collected a pair of hits for the Bucs.
