It took 12 innings but the Sharks plated across the only run of the ball game to walk off with the win against the Florence Redwolves Wednesday night.

Andrew Guerra(St. Louis) became the walk off wonder with a clutch two out single to bring Greg Bachman(Austin Peay) chasing around third to score the winning run. With one down in the 12th, Bachman would walk to set him self into scoring position. Then a batter later Guerra stepped up and produced the game winning RBI.

Not to be lost in the late heroics, a heroic 10 inning performance from starter J.C. Casey(Missouri State). The righty scattered five hits and three walks over the ten frames, striking out seven.
