OAK GROVE, La. &8212; Despite getting just five hits, the Oak Grove Tigers took advantage of numerous miscues to defeat the Vidalia Vikings 8-4 Tuesday night.

Oak Grove (7-9) broke a 1-1 game with three runs in the bottom of the second and two more in the bottom of the third.

&8220;We walked seven, hit two and committed five errors. That doesn&8217;t include the mental mistakes we made,&8221; Vikings head coach Johnny Lee Hoffpauir said. &8220;So we didn&8217;t give ourselves a good chance to win. You put that many walks and errors together and you&8217;re not going to win at any level.&8221;

Winning pitcher Justin Shelton had the only extra-base hit of the game for the Tigers with a home run. Vidalia (12-4) had three players with at least two hits, including Beau Doughty, who went 3-for-4 with a pair of doubles. Even though the Vikings finished with 10 hits, they could only manage four one-run innings.

&8220;We played tonight like we did four weeks ago,&8221; Hoffpauir said, &8220;so we took five steps back.&8221;
