Brewton quickly cut the lead to one run at 6-5 in the top of the second and held Covington County scoreless in their half of the second inning.
But things changed in the third inning after Brewton was held scoreless as Covington County scored three runs to claim a 9-5 lead.
Brewton would later score one run in the top of the fourth inning to cut the lead to 9-6, but that would be the final run of the game as Covington County took the win by a score of 9-6 and eliminate Brewton.
