The host Brookhaven Panthers had no trouble Tuesday night atMoyer Field in sweeping a pair of Division 6-4A wins from the PortGibson Blue Wave. The amazing thing was both games went only 2 1/2innings.

The Panthers won the opener 19-0 and came back minutes later totake the finale 20-0. The double header was over before the secondgame was scheduled to begin at 7.

Because of the threat of rain, both coaches and officialsdecided to start the second game right behind the first one.

“It’s a tough situation,” said Brookhaven head baseball coachRandy Spring about the lopsided scores. “You feel bad forthem.”

Spring was able to play everybody and they contributed.

“We only batted four innings,” added Spring. “We got everybodyon the field. We did a pretty good job.”

Brookhaven improved to 17-5 overall and 7-3 in the division. ThePanthers travel to McComb Saturday for another division test.
