GRAND PRAIRIE, Texas - The Concordia Baseball team, in a near five-hour game, defeated Hendrix College 17-14 in extra innings to snap a four-game losing streak on Sunday afternoon.

A combined 17 pitchers were used between the teams, 23 walks were issued, and eight hit batters. The Tornados scored 17 runs on 20 hits, while the Warriors scored 14 runs on 15 hits.

After the first three frames, CTX led 2-1, scoring two runs on a double by Jake Valadez and Race Mellman's single in the first. Hendrix would take their first lead of the game after a five-run fourth inning off of Matt Williams, who was in his second start of the season.

The Tornados rallied to tie it up at 8-8 after scoring at least one run in the next three innings, including a three-run seventh, where Bryce Helmcamp's triple scored two. In the ninth, neither team was able to push across a run, as CTX headed to extra innings for the second straight game.

In extras, both team scored two runs in the tenth and three runs in the eleventh as the game went to the twelfth tied at 13-13. In the twelfth, the first five Tornados reached base without a hit. Nathan Train was hit by the pitch to bring home the first run of the inning followed by a walk, a sac fly and a sac bunt as three more runs would cross the plate and CTX headed to the bottom half of the inning leading 17-13.

The Warriors' first two batters reached base on hit by pitches and they would eventually load the bases after a single and walk with one out in the inning. But Tristan Gideon, in his second inning of work, was able to get a flyout to right and a flyout to the warning track in left field to end the game and secure the Tornados' first win since opening day.

Up next, CTX travel to Birmingham, Ala., to face fifth-ranked Birmingham Southern in a three-game series that will start on Feb. 17 at 4 p.m.
