Despite falling behind in the sixth inning, Andrew battled back to edge Hinsdale Central 6-4 in a non-conference baseball thriller.
Despite chilly conditions, Andrew remained red hot with its third straight baseball win as the T-Bolts beat Hinsdale Central 6-4 on Monday behind solid pitching by Dan Truesdale and the bat of Brian Cobb.
The T-Bolts got off to a fast start in the bottom of the first with a two-run double by Cobb. Pat Elget and Matt Biernat scored on the blast. The Red Devils responded with one run in the third and two in the sixth to take the lead. But a four-run bottom of the sixth allowed Andrew to regain control.
