KALAMAZOO-The Flashes rallied for two in the ninth and Peyton Cariaco closed the door on the Broncos in a 5-4 comeback win on Saturday afternoon.
Trailing 4-3 in the ninth, Ripken Reese hit a 1-1 pitch over the right field wall for a game-tying solo shot and a perfect time for his first collegiate homer. A pair of hit batters put the go-ahead run in scoring position and Tim Orr delivered a go-ahead double on the first pitch he saw. Cariaco made the lead hold up, striking out two in the ninth and stranding the tying run on second.
