Rocky Mount busts out big inning, big lead
5:40 p.m. If the Gryphons continue to hit like they have early during this third game of the NCHSAA 3-A state championship series, there will be little drama and little doubt about who will take home a title.
Rocky Mount scored four more runs in the top of the second to build a 6-1 lead and chase East Rowan starter Cody Laws.
Dillon Cockrell doubled and Gabe Brown singled him home to start the inning. After two straight ground outs, new pitcher Kent Basinger intentionally walked Brian Goodwin (the intentional walk was the second for Goodwin in as many at-bats and his fourth in 10 plate appearances this series). Then Chris Berry ripped a two-run double to left and Ben Fish followed with an RBI double to deep center.
Benton Moss retired the Mustangs in order in the bottom of the inning.
