PEMBROKE, N.C. - Senior Drew Walker and junior Zach Taylor launched two-run home runs to help lead the No. 7-ranked Armstrong Atlantic State University baseball squad to its seventh straight win in a 15-4 victory over Pfeiffer on Tuesday in Pembroke, N.C.

Pfeiffer started the game off by scoring the first four runs of the contest. Cole McGraw's RBI single put the Falcons up, 1-0, in the first, then Pfeiffer tacked on three runs in the second inning on a two-run single by Kevin Price and a sacrifice fly by Preston Lyon.

Armstrong answered with three runs in the bottom of the second - two on Walker's fourth home run of the season - and then the Pirates took the lead for good with a six-run third inning, highlighted by RBI singles from John Roberts and Casey Maloney.

After a lengthy lightning delay in the bottom of the fourth inning, the first of two in the contest, the Pirates tacked on two more runs on Clayton Miller's two-run double. Taylor added his two-run home run in the fifth and the Pirates capped the scoring with a three-run seventh inning that included an RBI double by Walker.
