Turning Point
The bottom of the fourth inning proved to be the turning point in today's contest as the Seahawks plated four runs to take a 4-3 advantage, a lead that Keiser would not relinquish. After the leadoff single, Dylan Dore advanced to second on the balk that started it all. Brad Myott plated Dore with a one-out single, followed by a Tivon Faneyte triple to trim the Grizzlies lead to one. Faneyte would later score on a wild pitch and then Tom Prospero would bring Miguel Casanueva across the plate with a single up the middle to provide the Seahawks with the 4-3 lead.

How it Happened

The Grizzlies scored first in the top half of the opening inning when Jean Figueroa chopped a ground ball up the middle to plate Marcus McCorkle and Rodney Tennie for the early 2-0 lead.
Trevor Bradley robbed the Seahawks of their first base hit in the bottom of the second when the senior dove across the middle of the infield and fired a throw to first to barely beat Jack Curtis to the bag.
The Grizzlies added one run to their total in the top of the third when Chris Jones laced an 0-2 breaking ball over the right field fence to extend the lead to 3-0.
Dylan Dore notched the Seahawks' first hit in the bottom of the fourth inning with a lead-off single to left field.
Following a balk and a ground out to second that sent Dore to third, Brad Myott roped a single through the left side of the infield to put Keiser on the board, 3-1.
The very next batter, Tivon Faneyte, legged out a triple to left center, scoring Tyler Hitt from first who was in to pinch run for Myott.
The contest was tied up at three apiece when Faneyte crossed the plate following a wild pitch from Nikolay Uherek.
Keiser was not done scoring in the bottom of the fourth as Tom Prospero bounced a high ground-ball single that went off the glove of Bradley, plating Miguel Casanueva from second to cap off the four-run bottom of the fourth.
The Seahawks plated two more runs in the bottom of the sixth inning when Tyler Goff laced a two-out double to center field, bringing around Lopez and Olivero to cross the plate.
The Grizzlies closed the Keiser lead to just one when they score two runs on two hits and two errors in the top of the seventh inning.
Georgia Gwinnett had the tying run on second with two outs in the top of the eighth but Miguel Castellanos punched out Bradley swinging to end the inning.
The Grizzlies put the tying run on in the top of the ninth when Myles Smith reached on an error by Goff, then advancing to second on the throwing error.
Smith later advanced to third after Tennie grounded out to Gabby Mundo, setting up the dramatic finish with two outs left.
Castellanos completed the three-inning save when Chris Jones popped up a squeeze play bunt to end the game to seal the 6-5 victory in favor of the Seahawks.
