Fulton forces Game 3 with 10-3 win over Chiefs

Fulton broke open a tight 1-1 game with two late-inning outbursts and knocked off the Paducah Chiefs 10-3 to even their semifinal playoff series on Wednesday night.

The Railroaders jumped ahead with five runs in the sixth inning, and four more in the eighth.

Cole Pauley started on the mound for Paducah. He scattered four hits and struck out five in five innings of work. Tyler Chapman also threw a gem for Fulton, allowing five hits over six innings with seven K's.

Noah Wagster and Joey Ruiz both had a pair of hits for the Chiefs.

Thomas Kuhn was 3-for-5 for the Railroaders, and teammate Shane Carnes homered.

Fulton's win means a third and deciding game is necessary. First pitch is 6:30 Thursday at Paducah's Brooks Stadium.

The winner will face the Full Count Rhythm, who swept their semifinal series with Hoptown by scores of 7-1 and 6-3.
