5-run 7th lifts Voyagers past Riders Wednesday

GREAT FALLS — A seventh-inning wild pitch scored the go-ahead run for Great Falls and the Voyagers racked up four more runs before the inning ended on the way to a 13-7 Pioneer League win over the Glacier Range Riders Wednesday.

The Range Riders had just tied the game at 7-7 in the top of the seventh, on RBI singles from Logan Beard and Edrick Felix.  

In the bottom of the inning Will Rogers hit a leadoff single, took second on an error, made third on a fielder’s choice and came in on Ryan Humphreys’ wild pitch. The Voyagers led 8-7 and weren’t done: two walks led to a pitching change, and Connor Housley hit the first batter he faced to load the bases. 

Vincent Temesvary came up and hit a two-run single and Aidan Redahan followed with a two-run double to make it 12-7.  

Redahan, the Voyagers’ leadoff hitter, had four hits including two doubles.  

Alex Fernandes scored three times for Glacier, drawing three walks. He and Carson Hornung hit doubles.
