Almost one month ago on June 9, Tyler Campbell made his Frontier League debut against the Joliet Slammers. The seven-strikeout performance was one of two wins picked up at Trustmark Park in the six-game series.

Now on the road at Slammers Stadium, Campbell looked to post another W against Joliet.

Unlike the opener of the series, it was Joliet punching first, scoring a run on a sacrifice fly to open the scoring against Campbell in the bottom of the first.

Battipaglia reached with a leadoff double and came in to score on a one-out sacrifice fly by Blake Berry.

Joliet tied it right back, however, in their second chance at the plate.

After a one-out walk by Jackson Beaman, Kadon Morton followed with an RBI double to knot things up 2-2.

When the top of the third rolled around, Mississippi did not let its foot off the pedal. A leadoff single by Kyle Booker started things before Travis Holt made it two consecutive singles to put runners on the corners.

One batter later, Fritz picked up his second hit of the game, a single into right field off the glove of Joliet second baseman Tyler Cerny to put Mississippi back up with a 3-2 lead.

Furr followed with a single of his own that took a strange path on Cerny to score Holt and increase the lead to 4-2. Payne II hit his second sacrifice fly of the game to bring across Fritz for the 5-2 Mud Monsters lead.

Things remained stagnant for a full inning until Campbell ran into trouble in the home half of the sixth frame.

Joliet loaded the bases when Jackson Valera led off with a double, Cerny picked up a single and Cam Suto reached on a free pass.

Campbell got a clutch strikeout of Beaman before making a mistake pitch on a full count to Morton, who crushed a go-ahead grand slam to put Joliet ahead 7-6.

After the bats were silenced for the three innings after Booker's solo blast, Tristan House took over for Campbell.

The southpaw out of Albuquerque, New Mexico finished his outing going six innings, allowing seven runs on seven hits while walking three and striking out three.

Brayden Sanders took the ball from House and tossed a scoreless bottom of the eighth to keep the offense's momentum rolling into the ninth.

Fritz led things off with his second double on the day, blooping a ball that was fair by mere inches. Slater Schield, who entered as a pinch-hitter for Furr in the seventh inning, lifted a fly ball to right that was deep enough to put Fritz ninety feet away from scoring the go-ahead run.

On a 1-1 offering to Shelly, Joliet reliever Shaun Gamelin fired a wild pitch that allowed Fritz to charge home and put the Mud Monsters up 8-7.

With the finale against Florence being an extra-inning bout and last night's contest following the same path, the third consecutive tenth inning Mississippi played got off to a great start.

Ghost runner Nathan Rose was joined on the basepaths by Booker, who drew a one-out walk.

Then five pitches later from Joliet reliever Ben Catrambone, Holt jumped on a 2-2 offering and lined it down the left-field line to score both runners for a 10-8 lead and another go-ahead score.
