2019 Fall Roster | Photo Gallery
THE FLATS – Georgia Tech baseball’s White vs. Gold World Series got underway on Monday as Team Gold won on a wild pitch to take Game 1, 1-0, at Russ Chandler Stadium.
Each year, the Yellow Jackets split their fall roster into two teams and play three seven-inning games against one another.
Highlights from Game 1:
- Freshman Will Coquillard scored the game-winning run on a wild pitch after being stealing his way to third.
- Pitchers from both teams threw 74-percent first-pitch strikes on the day, hammering the zone.
- Redshirt senior right-handed pitcher Jonathan Hughes touched 95 mph in his clean predetermined short start.
- Redshirt junior right-handed pitcher Andy Archer returned to the mound for the first time after returning from injury, hitting 94 mph on his fast ball for a clean outing.
- While playing left field, freshman Harrison Thiel made a terrific catch on a fly ball that got lost in the cloudy skies, colliding with the wall.
- Returning to the outfield for the first time in two years due to injury, junior Michael Guldberg also made a highlight-level catch on a full-out dive down the left-field line.
The teams will square off two more times, beginning on Tuesday, Oct. 8, before concluding the series on Wednesday, Oct. 9. First pitch for both games remains at 3:15 p.m.
