BILLINGS — Adam Cootway broke a 4-4 tie as Billings plated six in the seventh inning to take a 10-5 victory over the Glacier Range Riders Friday evening at Dehler Park. 


Cootway’s two-run double set the Mustangs (17-4) ahead 6-4 and was quickly followed by a Kyle Micklus two-RBI single. Jack Nehler and John McHenry added RBIs in the frame as Billings pulled away. 


Glacier (13-9) had the power working Friday though as Carson Hornung blasted his second homer of the year, a two-run shot to right-center in the fourth. Logan Beard (fourth of the season) and Alex Fernandes (first of the year) added solo bombs in the inning to give Glacier a 4-1 lead. 


An error closed it to 4-2 in the bottom of the fourth before Michael Soper tied the game with a two-run single to right. 


Hornung singled to bring in Donovan Ratfield in the eighth, but Glacier couldn’t rally. 


Cole Calnon went six innings for the Mustangs, allowing four runs on 10 hits. He struck out four. Jackson Betancourt closed out the final three innings, giving up a run on two hits. 


Jared Engman and Chris Canada went three innings each for the Range Riders. Canada picked up the loss.
