Jack Palmerine hit a walk-off, line-drive single to center field to score Paul Linkowski in the bottom of the 11th inning as Mt. Lebanon defeated Peters Township, 2-1, in a Class 6A Section 3 game.

Linkowski reached on a leadoff single then advanced to third base after a batter was hit by a pitch and a ground out before scoring.

The run represented the first score of the game since the fourth inning when Mt. Lebanon (4-1, 5-5) tied the game at 1-1 on an error committed by the Indians.

Peters Township’s Dax Ploskina opened the scoring when he singled home Kyle Comini in the top of the first, the only run the Indians (2-3, 5-6) would score.

West Mifflin 10, McGuffey 4: Nick Ackerman hit a double and home run to lead West Mifflin to a Class 4A Section 3 victory over McGuffey, 10-4.

Ben Visnesky matched Ackerman with two RBI for the Titans (4-1, 7-2).

McGuffey’s Adam Blacharczyk had a double. Adam Townsend hit an inside-the-park home run for the Highlanders (1-4, 3-5) in the seventh inning.
