Avilla Wins Fourth Of July Baseball Thriller
Avilla rallied past Nashville in the seventh inning as four wild Nashville errors opened the door for three runs and the lead. Williams and Cherry formed a strong battery for Avilla from Mt. Vernon, while Nashville ace Mitchell held Avilla to nine hits. Will Hicks starred for Nashville with two singles and strong defense, but costly passed balls doomed Nashville as Avilla added runs to finish the game amid vocal support from both sides.
