BLACKSBURG, Va. – Chris Kay’s RBI single in the bottom of the sixth inning broke a 7-7 tie and lifted Team Camo to an 8-7 win over Team Throwback in game one of the Hokie Fall World Series on a frigid Sunday evening at English Field.

Team Camo, wearing the special edition camouflage jerseys that were debuted last spring, banged out 12 hits, including seven of the extra-base variety, to notch the victory in the seven-inning contest. Reliever Sean McDermott picked up the win and Brandon Fisher nailed down the save.

Team Throwback, wearing the Hokies’ old school Houston Astro-style jerseys, was led by catcher Anthony Sosnoskie’s three RBIs. Buddy Sosnoskie took the loss on the mound after moving from right field to begin the sixth.

Team Camo got things started in the bottom of the first when first baseman Matt Blow clubbed an RBI double off the wall in right-center field to bring home center fielder Sean Ryan. Shortstop Tim Smalling immediately followed with a two-run homer to straight-away center field to give the Camos a 3-0 lead.

Team Throwback got on the board in the top of the third with a pair of runs. Anthony Sosnoskie singled home shortstop Ronnie Shaban for the frame’s first tally, while left fielder Steve Domecus later scored on a wild pitch by Camo starting pitcher Manny Martir.

The Throwbacks scored three more times in the top of the fourth. Domecus doubled down the left field line to plate second baseman Michael Seaborn, and Anthony Sosnoskie followed with a two-run bomb to straight-away center to give the Throwbacks a 5-3 lead.

Three consecutive extra-base hits in the bottom of the fifth brought Team Camo back from the two-run deficit and spotted them with a 7-5 advantage. Right fielder Austin Wates, who led off with a single, scored on a triple to left by Smalling to account for the first run of the inning. Kay then doubled off the left field wall to bring home Smalling, and catcher Chad Morgan followed with a triple to the right field corner to score Kay. Left fielder Tyler Horan capped the outburst by driving home Morgan with an RBI single.

A two-run, two-out double to left by Throwback third baseman Andrew Rash knotted the game at 7 apiece in the top of the sixth, but that just set the stage for Kay’s game-winning hit in the bottom half.

The intrasquad series will continue on Tuesday at English Field with a 5:30 p.m. first pitch.
