The Jackets came out and quickly dominated the Tigers in five innings of action to secure the win.

Landon Gartman tossed the win for the Jackets with six strikeouts and three walks.

Josh Hardin powered the Jackets’ offense with two singles. Reese Brocato ripped a double and Brady Watts had a single.

“Landon pitched a great game, and he did a good job keeping his pitch count down low in this cold weather,” Enterprise coach Cass Brister said. “The guys played decent on defense, but offensively we struggled. We still have a lot of things to improve on to get better.”
