TENNESSEE 18, GEORGIA 4Tennessee 112 331 403 – 18 15 1Georgia 003 010 000 – 4 5 4WP: Tyler Garner. LP: Alex Ridge. 3B: Jared Allen (T). 2B: Allen, James Fowlkes, Tyler Lee (T). Highlights: Allen 4-4, BB, 4 RBIs, 2 runs; Will Cooper 2-4, 2 SBs, 3 runs (T). Record: Tennessee leads series 9-1.
Tennessee set a record for runs scored and Jared Allen tied a record with four hits, and his four RBIs set a record in a 20-4 victory Monday night in the 10th annual Tennessee-Georgia all-star baseball game at AT&T Field.
Allen, the Best of Preps male athlete and all-area baseball player of the year, went 4-for-4 with a triple, a double and two singles. He also walked once.
“I guess that was a pretty good showing,” said the University of Tennessee signee from Polk County. “It’s something to be proud of. That last [at-bat] I thought I had gotten it out, but I hit it to the wrong part of the ballfield.”
That hit was a towering shot into the right-center power alley. The ball bounced just shy of the wall and skipped over it.
