Patriot baseball wins on error
The Patriots played from behind for most of the game.
They were out front at the end.

Woodlan (3-1, 0-1 ACAC) scored twice in the top of the first inning and kept Jay County (3-2, 1-0 ACAC) at bay for the first four innings.
The Patriots cut the deficit in half during the fifth inning on a Mitchel Frasher RBI single. One inning later, Max Moser drove in Cole Stigleman to tie the game and Wyatt Geesaman scored on a throwing error by Woodlan pitcher Blake Bontrager for the game-winning run.
