Eli Folds put together a superb outing on Tuesday, striking out 13 batters to lead West Point to a 7-1 win over Gibson County in Gulf Shores.

The senior right-hander scattered eight hits and issued just one walk over six innings as the Warriors improved to 10-11 this season.

“Eli went out and competed as usual and gave us a chance to win,” West Point coach Drew Bryson said. “In the first inning, they hit a couple of ground balls that found some holes and scratched one across. After that, Eli settled in, went to work and dominated the rest of the game.”

Gibson County indeed opened the contest with three consecutive singles and took a 1-0 lead on a wild pitch.

Folds, however, buckled down and struck out the side to minimize the damage.

The LaGrange signee then tied the matchup in the second inning with an RBI double, and teammate Isaac Hoffpauir followed with a two-run double to put West Point in front 3-1.

Kanaan Sutter, JD Cochran and Andrew Putman each had RBI singles later on to help pad the lead.

Sutter (two RBIs), Cochran (RBI) and Putman (RBI) all recorded two hits, while Hoffpauir (two RBIs), Folds (RBI) and Caiden Rodgers notched one hit apiece.

“We swung it well and had really good at-bats today — rolling the baseball and forcing them to make plays,” Bryson said. “Isaac came up big with a two-strike, two-out double to give us the lead. I’m proud of how our guys played today. If we can consistently play to our standard, we’ll be in good shape.”
