Yellow Jackets Roll Into Regional Champion****p After 6-3 Win vs.
Lipscomb
Georgia Tech tops Lipscomb, will play Sunday at 6 p.m. against the Bison
or Georgia
May 31, 2008
ATHENS, Ga. - Brad Feltes' two-out, two-run double in the eighth inning
helped Georgia Tech beat Lipscomb, 6-3, advancing the Yellow Jackets
into the champion****p round of the Athens NCAA Baseball Regional at
Georgia's Foley Field.
Georgia Tech (41-19) will play either Lipscomb or regional host Georgia
(those two teams play Sunday at 2 p.m.) Sunday at 6 p.m. A win Sunday
night would send the Yellow Jackets to a Super Regional next week. If
Tech loses Sunday night, it would force a deciding game Monday at 7 p.m.
"I felt good when Feltes came up to the plate," Georgia Tech head coach
Danny Hall said. "There's probably not another guy I'd rather see up
there than him. He's been a clutch hitter all season."
Feltes' clutch hit in the eighth inning came off of Lipscomb reliever
Kyle Tognazzini and broke a 3-3 tie. Between a three-run second inning
and Tech's two runs in the eighth, the Yellow Jackets were frustrated by
Bison starter Brandon McClurg (6-6), who retired 16 of 17 batters during
the stretch.
"McClurg really did a good job of mixing his pitches," Hall said. "He
really doesn't throw anything straight. Everything moves and he can
throw any of his pitches when he wanted to."
