BROOKHAVEN — Jadarius Anderson scored the game-winning run with a steal of home plate with two outs in the bottom of the sixth inning to give the Natchez 10-year-old All-Stars a dramatic 4-3 win over Copiah Monday afternoon to stay alive in the District 6 North Sub-District Tournament.

Anderson reached on an error and eventually scored with Lester Wells at bat to give Natchez the win. Natchez will take on the winner of the Wesson/Brookhaven Americans game today at 8 p.m. at Keystone Park.

“It was a tough game, a low-scoring game,” Natchez head coach Ben Hewitt said. “It wasn’t any big plays and big hits. We had seven hits, but wasn’t nothing like the doubles and the triples you expect in an All-Star game.”

Winning pitcher Quinten Logan struck out 12 batters and allowed just one run on one hit in four strong innings on the mound. Thomas Garrity pitched the last two innings and gave up two runs on three hits.

“The pitching for both teams was awesome,” Hewitt said.

Tyler Lott gave Natchez fits at the plate in his last two at-bats of the game. In the top of the fourth inning, he doubled off Logan and scored on an error to make it a 2-1 game. After Natchez had taken a 3-2 lead in the bottom of the fifth on a single by Kenneth Jordan that brought in Christian Jenkins, Lott tied the game at 3-3 in the top of the sixth when he scored on an RBI single by Ryan Drew.

Oddly enough, Drew wound up being the losing pitcher thanks to Anderson’s steal of home plate.

Natchez jumped out to an early 2-0 lead when Trey Fleming scored on an RBI single by Cameron Farmer in the bottom of the first inning and Ben Hewitt scored on an RBI single by Jenkins. Farmer and Hewitt each went 2-for-3 for Natchez.
