River Hill mounted a massive comeback and scored three runs in the bottom of the sixth inning and seven in the seventh to rally from a nine-run sixth-inning deficit and beat Centennial, 11-10, at home on Wednesday.

The Hawks (5-4, 5-3 Howard County) strung together four hits in the bottom of the sixth to get within six and then in the seventh drew seven walks and had two hits. Shortstop Casey Finkelston (2-for-4), who started the frame with a base on balls, ended the game with a walk-off two-RBI single to right.

“I knew I was taking first pitch because I knew he wasn’t throwing many strikes, but I was just looking to go up there and hit the ball well,” Finkelston said. “We just played a very good ball game, battled back and worked hard.”

Pitcher Zach Steen struggled in the final inning for the Eagles (5-6, 5-4) by allowing a hit and walking six batters, two of which were hit by pitches, and four straight came with the bases loaded. Matt Durkee faced the last two batters, hitting one to score a run and Finkelston with the bases loaded.
