Henderson State used a sixth-inning rally and got several big performances as the Reddies swept a double-header from Southwestern Oklahoma, 6-3 and 2-1, Friday at Clyde Berry Field.

The Reddies improved to 22-16 overall and 15-11 in Great American Conference play while the Bulldogs fell to 15-21 and 11-13.

Henderson had to rally from a 1-0 deficit late in game two to get the sweep and it all started when pinch-hitter Jackson Martin slapped a triple to right field to begin the inning.

Alan Hall, who totaled five hits in the twin-bill, then doubled to left-center field to tie the score at 1-1. With two outs and runners on the corners, Joe Myers took Jeremy Smith's 1-2 offering to left field to drive home the eventual game winning run.

Reddie relief pitcher Blake Patterson entered the game in the seventh and retired the side in order to pick up his second save of the day and ninth of the season.

Patterson's effort preserved the win for Bryant Haralson who improved to 6-3 on the year.    

In the opener, Henderson scored three runs in the first-inning and two more in the second and went on to win 6-3.

The Reddies clubbed 15 hits in the game with Colton Coffman and Hall both going 4-for-4 in the contest.

Coffman had a double and a run batted in, while Hall also had a double, scored twice and plated a run.

Dylan McCain was also perfect at the plate going 3-for-3 with a pair of RBI while Jordan Taylor was 2-for-4 with a double and a run batted in.

Luke Tebbetts pitched 8.1 innings to pick up the win and improved to 7-2 on the season. Tebbetts fanned five batters and scattered six hits. The senior from Winnsboro, Texas became only the third Reddie in HSU history to record 20 career wins.

Patterson entered the ninth inning with the bases loaded and got out of the jam to record his eighth save of the year.

The two teams will play the finale on Saturday with the first pitch set for 1 p.m. at Clyde Berry Field. Prior to the game Henderson State will honor its nine seniors with the ceremony beginning at 12:45 p.m.
