Jackson splits with Hoover and moves to 3-1 in Federal League play!
On Tuesday, the Jackson Polar Bears faced off against the Hoover Vikings on the road. It was tied 2-2 until the bottom of the fourth when Hoover scored seven runs to take the lead 9-2. The Polar Bears chipped away scoring in the fifth, sixth, and seventh innings before losing 9-7. The Jackson offense was out hit by the Vikings ten (10) to seven (7). The Polar Bears were unable to capitalize on a few opportunities that may have made a difference in the outcome of the game. The team battled until the final out and would look for a different outcome against the Vikings on Wednesday.
