After Norton came on in the fourth, he struck out a batter, but then gave up a fly ball to right that was dropped, allowing two runs to score as Adams Central took a 6-3 lead thanks to Colston Pruitt. Andy Geels and Jami Roach both scored on the play and the home team looked to be in control. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
