Tupelo eliminates the Booneville Braves with a 16-6 win in 7 innings, Austin Burns gets the win for the 49er’s.
The error-prone Braves committed 5 errors in today’s season-ending loss, duplicating the same amount of mistakes in yesterday’s 11-0 loss to the Pontotoc Red Sox.
Tupelo will be faced with another elimination game later tonight as they await the loser between Pontotoc and Hattiesburg. Tupelo dropped a 5-3 decision to Hub City in last night’s late game and split their series with the Red Sox during the regular season.
The winner between Pontotoc and Hub City will advance to Sunday’s championship series where they will have to lose two games before being eliminated from the tournament.
