Only one inning mattered, but it was an inning that made all the difference for Stanhope Elmore’s baseball team.
Last Thursday, the Mustangs faced off against Wetumpka in a must-win situation for the Class 6A Area 4 title. Coming off a 7-4 victory last Tuesday, the Mustangs put themselves in the driver’s seat heading into a winner-take-all doubleheader, and they came away with the 4-1 victory after some heroics got them there.
