The Jamestown Jimmies baseball team scored 8 runs in the 7th inning, capped by a Jacob Thomas inside-the-park home run, to rally for an 11-5 victory over West Virginia Wesleyan on Wednesday in Winter Haven, Florida. The win gives Jamestown back-to-back victories for the first time this season.
Why it matters
The Jimmies have struggled to start the 2026 season with a 3-11 record, so this comeback win could provide a much-needed boost of momentum as they prepare to open NSIC conference play against Concordia-St. Paul this weekend.
The details
Jamestown entered the 7th inning trailing 5-3 before erupting for 8 runs. The rally was sparked by a Jacob Thomas double and included a 2-run single by Jett Nelson, an RBI groundout by Mathieu Morin, and Thomas' inside-the-park home run. Isaac Hanson (2-0) earned the win in relief after starter Kai Mayfield allowed 4 runs in 2 innings.
