AUSTIN, Texas – A walk-off balk in the 10th inning provided the winning run as the Concordia Baseball team came away with a 9-8 win over defending national champion Trinity in a non-conference matchup on Tuesday night.

The Tigers tied it up at 8-all in the ninth on a single up the middle. After a failed suicide bunt attempt in the bottom half of the inning, the Tornados made up for it in the 10th.

Caleb Maddox led off the inning with a walk. He would move to third after a passed ball and a bloop single by Casen Novak with no one out. With Bret Leiferman at the plate, Novak broke for second and forced TU pitcher Chris Tate to make an illegal pickoff move and was called a balk, bringing home Maddox to give CTX the 9-8 win.

The Tornados used a combined eight pitchers on the night with Sean Mathews pitching the final two innings to earn his second win on the season.

Clarence Guidry had three of CTX's 13 hits, while Leiferman had a pair of hits, scoring three times on the night and had two RBIs.

The Tornados will return to Tornado Field when they will host Hardin-Simmons in their home series finale, beginning on Friday at 7 p.m.
