NATCHITOCHES – A controversial call in the bottom of the ninth inning took what appeared to be a win away from McNeese in the second game of Saturday’s doubleheader against Northwestern State, and two innings later, the Demons walked off with a 6-5 win to capture the Southland Conference series three games to one.
With McNeese leading 4-3 in the ninth and the tying run on third base, Cowboy relief pitcher Christian Vega appeared to have struck out a Demon batter swinging for the third out to capture the win. But as the Cowboys emptied the dugout to celebrate the win, the third base umpire ruled the batter foul-tipped the ball and extending the at-bat.
