Ninth-Inning Rally Lifts Jackets to 4-2 Win over Jacksonville State

June 1, 2014

OXFORD, Miss. Matt Gonzalez delivered the Georgia Tech baseball team a season-saving win Sunday, as his two-out, two-RBI double put the Yellow Jackets up for good against the Jacksonville State Gamecocks. The late rally won what was an elimination game for Tech, with Gonzalez breaking a 1-1 tie and Thomas Smith singling him in for a 4-1 lead.

Dusty Isaacs (8-5) earned the win for the Jackets by stranding two Gamecocks on base after coming on in the eighth inning and closing it out in the ninth, despite allowing one run.
