Layne Bent’s two-out single in the bottom of the seventh drove in Reed Sparrow with the winning run as Liberty walked off West Prairie/Southeastern 4-3 Friday in Liberty.
It was the regular season finale for both teams as the Cyclones fell to 12-12-1 for the season.
The Eagles took an early 2-0 lead in the first inning.
WP/SE starter Hudson Riebling walked Dylan Hocking to lead off the frame. Riebling struck out Evan Sims before Hocking stole second and Sparrow followed with an RBI-double to center for a 1-0 lead.
Gavin Edgar then hit a ground ball to Matt Whitman at short, but Whitman mishandled the ball, allowing Sparrow to score and Edgar to advance to second.
