In the opening game of the SUNYAC baseball tournament, Chris Brady hit a single to left field to drive in Tim Flaherty from second base with the game-winning run in the bottom of the ninth inning today to lift Oneonta State to a 3-2 win over Brockport. Flaherty reached on an error to lead off the ninth before being sacrificed to second by Anthony Suhadolnik. Flaherty just beat the throw to the plate on Brady's single as the throw was a bit high and off line.
