A total of 21 runs and 35 hits lit up the scoreboard as the South Point Pointers held off the Ironton Fighting Tigers 11-10 Monday in a wild slugfest.

"We had enough offense to win, but we gave up too many runs early and we made too many mistakes," Ironton coach Mark Lewis said. "We put them in a position to score and they did. We beat ourselves."

Each team had 15 hits with Calvin Robinson going 3-4 with a solo home run in the sixth inning that proved to be the decisive run.

"We just stayed relaxed and that was the key," Pointers coach Kevin Milem said. "We knew they would come back and make a tight game, but we started getting the outs when we needed them."

Wes Patterson singled, stole second, and scored on Tyler Staton's base hit to put the Pointers up 1-0 in the top of the first.

Ironton (5-5) came back with four in the bottom of the inning as Josh Sands singled, Kevin Williams walked, Josh Adkins tripled, a throwing error and Brigham Waginger had an RBI singled.

South Point tied the game in the second on doubles by Tyler Wells, Justin Smith and Caleb Copley and a triple by Corey Smoot.

Ironton regained the lead with a run in the second

on singles by Adam Ferguson and Sands and a Josh Adkins' sacrifice fly.

The Pointers erupted for six runs in the third inning to take a 10-5 lead as they got singles by Robinson, Wells, Smith, Copley and Kinney combined with three Ironton errors.

The Fighting Tigers got two runs back in the bottom of the inning on a double by Dennis Gagai, a walked to Waginger, a single by Dustin Preston and a throwing error.

Ironton got within 10-9 in the fourth as Kevin Williams walked, Gagai reached on an error, and Nick Collins and Patrick Kouns singled.

After Robinson homered in the sixth, Ironton rallied in the seventh.

With one out, Preston singled and went to second on an error. Greg Linn and Josh Sands singled to produce a run, and Ironton had runners at second and third with two outs.

But Pointers reliever Justin Smith got the next batter to fly out to end the game.
