The Jackson County Thunder played an outstanding semi-finals game against Winchester Rifles on Sunday at Shelby Park in Edna, winning 9-7.

The playoff vibe was in the air and in the player's brazen moves, letting the fans from both sides cheer and cajole loudly for their teams. The wind was blwing nicely during the afternoon, allowing the people to concentrate on the game and not the heat.

Both Thunder and the Rifles scored the majority of their points in the fifth, sixth and seventh innings, but Thunder kept edging out on top. Both teams scored one in the last two innings, but the game had already been won.
