Morehead City Marlins 7, Holly Springs Salamanders 4
In their debut as the Motorboaters Friday night, the Morehead City took down the Holly Springs Salamanders 7-4 in mesmerizing fashion. Shaun Gamelin (Rhode Island College) took the bump for the Motorboaters, and went four innings, giving up three runs and striking out four in his four-inning start.
Gamelin started the first with a bang, inducing a strikeout and two groundouts to start the frame. Salamanders starter Christian Keel would start the first with efficiency as well. Nate Anderson would single after a strikeout, but Keel would come back to strike out Michael Gould (Maryville) and Landon Choboy (Mount Olive) to end the threat.
The second would see two runners on for the Salamanders with one out, before Gamelin locked it in and struck out Win Johns, and prompted a Ty Torti to end the frame.
