PRAIRIE VIEW, Texas — Jay Campbell and William Brown did the heavy lifting, and the Florida A&M Rattlers did the rest.
Campbell launched two home runs and drove in four, Brown added a home run and four RBI of his own, and FAMU baseball rallied from an early two-run deficit to defeat Prairie View A&M, 10-6, on Friday afternoon in a nine-inning Southwestern Athletic Conference contest. The Rattlers improved to 14-14 overall with the road victory.
Prairie View drew first blood in the bottom of the first when Tyvon Moore deposited a two-run home run to left field, giving the Panthers a 2-0 lead before FAMU had taken an at-bat.
The Rattlers answered emphatically in the second inning, sending seven batters to the plate and scoring six times to flip the game on its head. A hit-by-pitch and a single set the table, and a Jordan Brown walk loaded the bases for William Brown, who reached on a two-run error to score two. Justen Crews followed with a run-scoring double down the left field line before Campbell delivered the knockout blow — a three-run home run that gave FAMU a 6-2 advantage it would not relinquish.
Garrett Workman was solid in the circle, keeping the Panthers off-balance for six innings. The right-hander struck out seven, allowed five hits and three earned runs, and walked just one in earning his second win of the season. Clark Lincoln ran into trouble in the seventh, surrendering three runs — two unearned — on a pair of FAMU errors before Ryan Young and Cody Williams combined to close things out.
Prairie View made a push in the seventh, cutting the deficit to 7-6 on an Ethan Walker RBI single and a ground out by Basilio Williams that scored another run. But FAMU put the game away in the eighth when William Brown crushed a two-run home run, and Campbell added a solo shot in the ninth for good measure.
The win was also a signature pitching performance for Workman, who improved to 2-3 despite not factoring into what was ultimately a 10-run output. Kenneth Haynes took the loss for Prairie View, falling to 0-3 after allowing seven runs — four earned — on four hits with five walks in 2.1 innings.
