Despite the 9 hits, the Raiders were only able to push 1 run across – coming on an RBI single from Kasen Morison in the first inning. Of Coffee County’s 9 hits, the only extra base hit was a double by Audie Nicoll.

Xander Meeks pitched well but was tagged with the loss on the mound. Meeks didn’t allow an earned run – scattering a pair of hits and striking out 3.
