PRINCETON, W.Va. (WVVA) -The new Appalachian League sudden-death rules came into play on Friday night.
Princeton led 6-2 after seven innings but Bristol came back to tie it and send the game to an extra frame.
The WhistlePigs failed to score in that extra frame after starting with a runner on first so the State Liners won the game.
