Jackets rally past Coastal Carolina to stay alive

By AccessWDUN Staff

ATLANTA — Georgia Tech baseball scored five runs in in the seventh inning to complete the comeback over Coastal Carolina, 10-8, to stay alive in the 2019 NCAA Tournament.

The Yellow Jackets (43-18) used four hits from Luke Waddell, three hits from Tristin English and two hits apiece from Kyle McCann and Colin Hall. Hall’s ninth-inning home run added the insurance to the game as English came in for a three-inning save, entering with bases-loaded in the seventh.

The Chanticleers (36-26-1) got three multi-hit performances, led by Zach Biermann’s two hits and two RBI.

Former Flowery Branch standout Jonathan Hughes (9-2) got the win with 2 2/3 innings of one-run workin relief to settle the game back for the Jackets, while Jay Causey (1-1) took the loss.
