Eagles get a big come from behind win to open the season 7-5 over American Heritage Plantation. Seth Natal drove in Emilio DeSilva with the winning run in the top of the seventh and Chris Walkerow pitched the final two innings to get the win.
CCA jumped ahead 1-0 in the 3rd inning on a Walkerow solo home run. The Patriots tied it in the bottom of the 3rd with a solo home run from Brandon Lopez. Tyler Middlebrooks and Anthony Avila hit back-to-back homers in the fourth. AMH got one run in the 4th to make it 3-2.
AMH went ahead with three runs in the bottom of the fifth and appeared to take control. But the Eagles fought back with two in the sixth to tie the game. A Middlebrooks double advanced Dalton DiNatale to third with one out. With two down, Walkerow blooped a bases clearing single to center to tie the game at 5.
Natal's winning hit was set up by singles from Emilio DeSilva and Taylor Gushue. Middlebrooks followed Natal with an RBI infield hit to provide the winning margin.
