The opening game of the Louisville Regional saw a lot of drama. So, it was only fitting that it would end in dramatic fashion.
With the game tied at six and two outs in the bottom of the ninth, Buckeye catcher Jalen Washington came to the plate with the bases loaded and left the plate jubilant to celebrate with his team.
