Ballard Delivers Walk-Off Win for Swallowtails
Will Burkhardt knocked in 4 runs to help State College beat Fairfield, 17-13. Burkhardt produced 2 singles, 1 double, and 1 home run. With the win, State College lifts its record to 11-16.

State College got a knockout punch from David Ballard. The first baseman hammered a grand slam home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"It's great to get the crowd pumped up," Ballard said.
