Heavener rallies past Roland, 7-6

Heavener rallied late to defeat Roland in a wild district high school baseball game Monday.

The win was the Wolves’ fourth straight. The two teams play again Tuesday at Roland.

Heavener built an early 4-0, capped off by a massive home run by Angel Alvarez, fell behind, 6-4, rallied to score two runs in the bottom of the seventh to send the game into extra innings then executed a perfect hit-and-run to manufacture the winning room in the bottom of the eighth.

Angel Alvarez was on first base and took off with the pitch. Bryce Early punched a hit into right center, bringing Alvarez around to score and give Heavener the dramatic win.

Early picked up the win pitching in relief of Bryce Morrison. Morrison, who threw a no-hitter in his last game against Checotah, went six innings, giving up three hits and five runs while striking out 12 and walking four. Early went the final two innings, allowing two hits and a run with three strikeouts and a walk.

Alvarez had the homer and was 2-5 with two runs and a RBI, Early doubled twice and was 2-5 with a RBI, Hagen Ritter finished 2-3 with a run and a RBI and Noah Ward knocked in three runs, including two in the bottom of the seventh with two outs to send the game into extra innings.
